If you happen to be on unemployment here in Texas, let me offer you a little word of advice: even if you get some part-time work (consulting, mowing lawns, walking old ladies, whatever), continue to make your unemployment payment requests on schedule. Otherwise, you'll have to file a whole new claim to get things setup again and you'll end up with another two week waiting period before you can make a request for mo' money.
I failed to make three payment requests while I was doing the shorty consulting gig and was away at Galveston, so when I tried to make a request just yesterday, I found out that my benefits had been suspended and I had to call the TWC Tele-center to have things reinstated. Four billion calls later, I finally got through to find out that even if I'm doing things to have money coming in, as long as they're not full time (which means greater than 30 hours per week) I still need to request my benefits (making sure to document what work I actually did so that they can deduct what I made from the benefits accordingly). Once I get full-time employment then the claim ends. You apparently can't just request it when you need it, you have to request it on schedule or things get dicey. So, in yet another dose of state-sponsored irony, a person gets penalized for being self-sufficient and not needing to draw unemployment for a few weeks.
What a country.
Up here in CT, it's also important to do that because if you're working part time, you might be eligible for some money based upon how they prorate your pay. The same thing happened to me last summer. I was able to collect a little bit of money along with my salary from teaching my summer class. Make sure you're getting every penny coming to ya!
