I stumbled across this site in pursuit of finding an answer to my question. I perused through various threads to try and find my answer, but I figured I ought to just post my question here and see what people have to say (or link me to).
I was let go from my job in December of last year in Chicago, IL. In March, I moved to DC to find another job. I still collect unemployment as of now from IL.
I have been presented with a job that will be just over the summer (it's full time for the summer, but it's guaranteed to end in August). I was also offered an opportunity to work for an unpaid job that does not have an end date.
My questions are as follows:
1. Does the unpaid job affect my unemployment?
2a. If I take the paid job over the summer, will I be able to collect unemployment post the job?
2b. If this is the case, what do I do to notify IL of this change?
3. If the job pays less than my current unemployment before taxes, do I make up the difference over the duration of the job?
4. If the job pays less than my current unemployment after taxes (but not before), do I make up any difference?
Thanks in advance!
