    Lost Wages and Unemployment Disputes

    I live in Michigan and back in March my supervisor fired me from my job, due to various reasons, and asked me to turn in my uniforms. I had another job lined up and some extra money in my bank so I wasn't worried about it and didn't file for unemployment immediately afterwards. The second job had ended up taking to long to respond, so I went to file for unemployment at the end of April - beginning of March. I had went through the process of determination to see if I was eligible for unemployment benefits, all in the time filling out various applications and calling the automated system they have. After about 6 weeks (Which is the time frame they told me to wait if i hadn't received a response from unemployment) I contacted the UIA offices. They told me that I was in fact not fired from my job and that the company had me listed as unavailable for work. So I called the company and they told me that I wasn't fired and they offered me a small job they had on the other side of the state (Which I accepted). Then I received the response to my determination and they determined that I was ineligible for benefits due to me being "Unavailable for suitable full-time work." So now here I am with bills being behind, almost no money in the bank and I am wondering if legally there is anything that I could do.

    Sure.

    You file an appeal with the UC agency.

    Instructions should be in that letter and on the agency website.
