Jane from Toms river asks:

I was fired from my employment last week. Will it be difficult for me to collect unemployment?

Statepay support representative suggests:

Jane- yes, it will be very difficult for you to collect unemployment insurance if you have been fired. Unemployment insurance is for those who have lost their job through no fault of their own (in other words, for those who have been laid off). We would recommend spending all of your time looking for new employment versus pursuing the unemployment insurance route. We wish you the best of luck.
