What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NC
My full time, salaried position is being reduced to three days per week at a salary cut of about 40%.
I have started the online claims process at the NCDES web site, but toward the end of the application I realized I wasn't being asked whether I have been completely laid off, or if my hours have just been reduced. Everything seems to be geared toward total unemployment with no separate classification for partial unemployment. I stopped (after saving) the application because, of course, I don't want to make any mistakes or accidentally file a false claim.
Should I go ahead and finish the application, and expect follow up questions later from the commission which will clarify my actual status? I'm just really concerned that if I file for full unemployment while I'm really only eligible for partial unemployment, it might cause problems later.
Or--if anyone has been through the NCDES claims process online, does it get into the whole complete/partial thing at the end and I just didn't go far enough? It really looked like I was at the end of the form and the next click would put me in the pipeline.
I searched the site but there were no hits on "partial". My worst fear is that there is no partial unemployment in NC.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
