[speaker001:] I was wondering if I could collect unemployment benefits.
[speaker002:] Did you get laid off?
[speaker001:] I am still working for now, but I might get laid off.
[speaker002:] You may collect unemployment if you are working fewer hours or got laid off.
[speaker001:] Does everyone who gets laid off get to collect unemployment?
[speaker002:] No, some jobs are exempt from paying into unemployment.
[speaker001:] How can I find out if I can collect?
[speaker002:] Your employer can tell you if you have been paying into unemployment and now qualify to collect.
[speaker001:] How will I know how much I can collect on unemployment?
[speaker002:] It depends on how much you earned. When you file, they will determine the amount.
