can i collect unemployment working part time

[Gabriela]

Partial unemployment benefits in the U.S. are often available to part-time employees whose hours or pay were involuntarily cut or who took part-time work while looking for full-time jobs. Weekly reporting of all gross income is required. Benefits are reduced according to earnings, yet partial payments may continue and extend the total benefit period.

Under New York’s updated partial unemployment rules, you can work seven days a week without losing full benefits if your weekly hours are 30 or fewer and earnings remain under the maximum gross benefit rate, excluding self-employment. Benefits are now reduced incrementally according to total weekly hours, not each day worked.

Part-time workers earning less than their weekly unemployment benefit might still qualify for full or partial payments. Part-time usually refers to working fewer than 40 hours per week. You must report all gross wages when certifying benefits, including part-time income before taxes or deductions, even if it appears below your weekly benefit.
