Automated line said unemployment allowed, but it also said this does not mean unemployment benefits would be received.

When I called the automated unemployment line they said the status of my entire claim was allowed but that it did not mean that I would receive benefits. I am really anxious to know whether or not I was approved for my unemployment. I just served my waiting week. So, does this mean I was approved? Thanks for the help.

Hi Renee,

I doubt it.

All states make two different types of determinations.

I think they were referencing the “monetary determination” which means your claim is valid .. at least as far as “required earnings”.
