I am a HR (personnel) person. In some states (perhaps all ) you can still collect Unemployment- even though you are working. The answer has to do with how much you made before you went on Unemployment?, how MUCH time you are working while you are ON Unemployment and how much money you are making at this new job?. Contact your Unemployment Office (where you applied)- answer their questions honestly and they will tell you if you can still collect partial or full benefits. If you fail to let them know you have found work- you will be breaking the law and the penalty would not be worth the money you get NOW but would have to pay back latter. Added to that- the punishment can be steep. If you read your Unemployment Paperwork you will see that when you signed up for UE you AGREED that you would inform UE if and when- you began to work again. Don't take a chance on ruining your future.
If you are working full time, you cannot receive unemployment benefits. When you file your biweekly claim, you are asked if you are working. If you answer truthfully and are working full time, your benefits will be stopped. However, if you lie, you will get caught and will have to pay a penalty.
Ethicaky speaking: No you can not. Because once you start working, the govt. Should not benefit you from the unemployment. You need to tell the authorities about it and then you will be eligible only for the payment of your salary.
