Rules for Denying Unemployment in Florida?

I am collecting unemployment and recently turned down a temporary position (no benefits) that was offered.

At the time, I was not aware you could re-open an unemployment claim after a temporary position ends. My decision was based on the fact that I wouldn't have had time to interview for full-time opportunities as well as be unemployed again two months later with no benefits. I tried calling the unemployment hotline but was not able to talk to anyone about my options.

What are the chances of them denying my unemployment claim? Or, is it justifiable/reasonable to turn down a position since it would only last two months?


    




Shane
The state of Florida follows Federal Law (they have no state laws why I left that God forsaken place). You just merely open up a new claim and do it online (forget about calling. too many unemployed.) You will get the benefit again with the extensions.


Judy
Unless the pay, or something like distance you'd have to travel, was unreasonable, your unemployment could be terminated for turning down the other job.
