Is severance counted as earnings to increase my California unemployment benefit determination?

Does the State of California consider severance payments as "earnings" when determining my weekly unemployment benefit amount? That is, should I until my severance payment is included in my base period before filling an unemployment insurance claim in the hopes that this would increase my weekly unemployment benefit determination? Thank you in advance for your answers!|||In CA, your Base Period is the first 4 of the last 5 quarters. For example, if you were to become eligible for UI benefits this month or in June, they would look at your earnings from:


April-June 2009, July-Sept. 2009, Oct-Dec 2009, Jan.-March 2010 Any earnings from April-June 2010 would not be counted (including severance).





If you waited until July 2010 to begin your claim, then your severance would be included. And it may be worthwhile to wait until July to submit your claim if:


1) you terminated employment in June. If you terminate in April or May, you would be ONLY earning those severance benefits between termination and filing which may lower your benefit level.


2) it would make such a significant difference that it would make up for your having missed benefits during the weeks/months you didn't claim.





And don't forget -- currently benefits are only expected to be extended through December 31, 2010. If you don't claim until July 1, 2010, your benefits will probably only be for the usual 26 weeks CA pays. If you begin your claim prior to July 1, you may be eligible for Tier I benefits - an additional 20 weeks.





So think about this decision carefully and run the numbers under all the scenarios. Of course, it's always possible that you'll get another job before any of these choices even need to be made. Now that would be sweet, wouldn't it?|||The period that they look at does not usually include the last few months of the last job. So the severance pay would not affect your claim if this is how they do things in your state. Maybe you can find out on line which exact months they will be looking at when you file.


Good luck.

Where do I apply for unemployment if I recently changed states?

I have just been laid off of my sales job. It was a swell place to work, but the economy is just not what it needs to be and staff was cut back. Now, I just moved to Texas from DC, so this is a new job. My "base period" was around the same time I started the job (about two weeks into my new job). Most of the base period was my employment in DC, at the job that I left. Do I apply for unemployment in DC or in Texas?|||States have different laws. But if you have earnings in Texas in your base period you should be able to apply in Texas. You can also apply in D.C. over the phone.|||Go online and apply in DC. You may get a partial check, you may have to go to DC for an interview. Just fill it out honestly and see what happens. Since you have a confusing situtaion they may need a personal interview or phone interview. Once it is approved and started it might be done on a transfered basis. Call and ask, but go ahead and file, as long as you are honest they can only deny if you did not make enough in your time frame, or the right tax was not being taken out, or your new job pays too much now, since you are employed.|||I'm thinking you would apply in Texas, since the layoff occurred there, even though most of your income was from DC.

Can you suggest a period in time for me?

Basically, I enjoy Doll's houses and furnishing them, my Dad has bought new one for my birthday, and said it looks old, like victorian old.


The thing is, as it's victorian looking it's pretty versatile to do, but victorian accessories are super expensive.





Can you think of any other periods in time that are similar to Victorian, but not too modern that I could base the whole house on?|||The 20's, more ornate than now, but not as much as the Victoria Era and with things like telephones, radios, cars. I don't know how much of that you'd have in a doll house.|||Well something to think about is the fact that victorian mansions are still around today. I used to live in a victorian mansion that had been converted to apartments. The place hadn't been updated since the 70's either (this was early 2000's when I was living there). For some reason though, the decor fit. In my own apartment, I had it set up looking like it was out of the 40's. Again, it really fit.





Victorian buildings are extremely versatile. You could get really really creative with this and do whatever you like.|||Maybe you could do it as a creepy, abandoned Victorian. That way you could get the lesser quality Victorian furnishings and use antiquing techniques to make them look neglected.|||Georgian and Edwardian eras preceded and succeeded the Victorian era.

How do I calculate if I am eligible for extended benefits?

My unemployment claim started on 07/12/2009. My weekly benefit rate is $253. The eligibility rules state I must have "Have base period wages in the base period of this claim that is equal to at least 40 times your regular benefit rate" If I was to multiply 40 by $253 that would be $10,120?? I guess I have no idea what this means but am assuming I am not eligible?|||It means that you are eligible if you make less that $253/week.

Describe the general trend in acid-base character of the oxides of the elements in the 3rd period: (Na to Ar)?

* please give an example of one acidic oxide and one basic oxide and show with equations how these oxides react with water|||The easy way to remember this is by examples as you indicated.





For Na, the oxide formed is Na2O or Sodium Oxide.This will react with water to form a very basic solution. Next is MgO or magnesium oxide, which react with water to also form a basic solution,





MgO + H2O ----%26gt; Mg(OH)2 (hydroxide makes it a base)





Then on the other side of the period, Sulfur forms SO2 or sulfur dioxide, and Chlorine forms ClO2. Both will react with water to form acidic solutions.





SO2 + H2O ---%26gt; H2SO3 (sulfurous acid)





Thus the general trend is from basic to acidic from left to right in a given period.|||acidity increases from Na to Ar and basicity decreases,


NaOh is more basic than NaCl

How soon would i start period after stopping Prometrium?

I am on day 31. I am taking Clomid days 3-7 to ovulate, and then Prometrium on days 18-30 to thicken the uterine walls to aid in implantation. Because of it keeping the lining there, i wouldn't have a period until i stop the meds. I stopped last night and now i either have to wait for a period or to see if i'm pregnant. My nipples have been tender for a week now and i sort of feel like i could start. (when i was pregnant in may (miscarried) i felt as though i could start at any minute). Just wondering if anyone had been on this drug and how long it took to see if they were pregnant or to start their period (if i ovulated this month...based on an ultrasound, it wouldn't have happened until day 20). Thanks.|||My wife went through this... she started her period about a week later.
