According to this DOL document you should file a claim "... when the strike starts." Guessing that would mean Sunday, though if you made more than $405 for the 2 days we worked you wouldn't be able to claim this week any way. Better safe than sorry ... claim ... all they can do is not make it count toward the 49 days.

OK ... so now what do we do about unemployment? How do we let them know we're back to work ... claim this week and indicate we've returned to work? We actually haven't yet. Don't want any unpleasant surprises Easter week. Anybody?
I would file tomorow stating we haven't returned to work full time. Then next Sunday, the 24th, state we worked 3 days and have returned to work full time. Just in case . . . .
Rock steady is correct.

Yes, actually that's what I was thinking, but if we get paid for the week I think we should say we worked 5. Agree?
Naturally . . .
Why would we not get paid for five if that is what our contract states? As you said we work under the old terms until there is a new agreement. Or is it just a free for all now ? :crazy:

I was told earlier this week by an unemployment representative not to certify anymore because we r on suspension due to the strike. She told me I was to file a new claim after March 6 if I was still on strike

Under terms of the old until there's a new.

See, now I was told by an unemployment representative at the Restoration Center on Hylan to certify every week (she stressed that a couple of times). I think there's no harm in doing so ... did today and will next week just for the purpose of indicating I'm back to work.
I don't think it really matters either way, they ain't giving no moola. :perplexed:
