What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MI
Person laid off permanently (position eliminated) in Feb. Starts drawing unemployment. Then, along comes a "bonus" of $1,700 based on last year's work performance. Does this have to be included as income for the purposes of drawing unemployment?
There is also a severance package of $5,400 coming and the same question goes for this. Person has to sign papers accepting this severance package before it is paid. I think it's that no lawsuit or other claims will be made by employee. But, thinking about the money coming, it will likely wipe out unemployment.
Person was first told they would be called back to work. Under this condition, they were NOT eligible for the 65/35% for cobra coverage and had to pay the whole monthly amount. Person pays $900 for two months cobra coverage and all of a sudden they have the "letter" telling them of the position elimination. All of a sudden, they are eligible for the 65/35. Thanks for any elightment. There is supposed to be all this $$ out there for displaced workers ie education etc. Just try to find it. Funder
