How to apply for unemployment insurance if your hours are reduced

Hello.
I used to get unemployment insurance, but have not applied for it since I started working again, but now I have decided to reduce the number of hours I work per week by about half.
I heard that I can apply for unemployment insurance for the reduced hours, but I am not sure if the craim method is the same.
I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this.
I still have a balance in my account.
Thank you very much.

I've heard that you can file for unemployment insurance for the reduced hours, but I'm not sure if Cram's method is the same."
↓
You can file as long as you work at least 40 hours per week and do not exceed your WBA. You only need to enter your hours worked and income in the weekly filing. You can find someone you know who works shorter hours and ask them to show you how to enter the information.

You should also contact your employer to have the UI office do a labor report with the same information as the weekly filing.

Hello.
When I did a claim last week, it was pending and
I get a message saying "pending decision on reporting requirement".
The company received a confirmation of my claim and said that they had filed a report with the same information, but I wonder if this means that there is something else going on and it is pending. ？

If anyone has received a similar pending message, I would like to know
how to resolve it.

Thank you very much.

I found out later that the location issue also shows "Pending decision on reporting requirement".

"I was on my smart phone during cram and received an email confirming my location"

Mr. sunset

long time no see.
Sorry for the flight question, I've read the UI handbook but I don't understand it …
I will be receiving a small but actual bonus for 2019 from the company this month.
I think I need to apply it as income when I file, but I'm not sure if I should apply gross income ？
or just the amount paid after various deductions ？ I was wondering if there is any mistake in case there is.

Thank you so much sunset, you are still taking action to ease the concerns of many people.
Best regards.

mikimahalo,

Please enter the amount as it was deposited into your bank account. You should also double check with your employer to make sure that the amount matches the labor report from your employer.

Hello. I recently confirmed with the company that I received a bonus transfer for the matter you answered in #7.
The company said that they will apply the transfer amount to UI.

Example ） The company transferred $500 to me and I received $400 after TAX etc. was deducted.
Company applies to UI for 0 hours worked/$500. I apply for $400. Is this correct ？

I really want to avoid just Overpayment … Please let me know if this is correct.

mikimahalo,

All I have heard so far is that it is important that all labor reports with the employer match without omission.

Please reconfirm with the call center to make sure that the way each of you, employer and mikimahalo, report your labor is really correct.

Because if the employer reports the labor incorrectly, you will still incur overpayment.

Thank you for your reply.
The company told me that the tax rate is set differently for each person, so this one will apply to the amount paid (gross ).
I'll ask around a bit as I'm sure other staff members have been paid as well. Thank you very much.

In the past, there were many cases where overpayments that occurred in April of last year received payment notices or were stopped last fall. Many people are still waiting for the suspension to be lifted.

It is not impossible that employers and co-workers may have made mistakes in labor reports, so the most accurate way to prevent overpayments from occurring is to have call center staff check with adjusters.

Thank you for all your advice. The company again informed me that the employer will file for 0 hours/gross after checking with the State of Hawaii.
I also checked with my colleague's family who has an accountant and he advised me to file gross.
Now, when I filed, I set "received bonus" to Yes and it said "How much is it in gross ？" so I filed it in gross.

I just hope the rest goes smoothly. Thank you so much for all your help.

It appears that the employer has reconfirmed with the State of Hawaii, so I am relieved that the correct labor report now matches Mikimahalo's.
