Receiving unemployment insurance and working as a sole proprietor

Question

I am currently receiving unemployment insurance.

I'm not sure who to ask for a clear answer, but would you report the amount of sole proprietorship income you received while receiving unemployment insurance as the answer to the following question in the Weekly Certification? ？

Did you receive residual pay, commissions or other deductible income such as bonuses, or back pay? Employer （ There is some confusion as to whether you should enter income received from an employer ） with whom you have an employment relationship, or whether you should enter any form of income at all.

Please let me know if anyone can help me understand.

Mr. Sunset

called the office and inquired about the current situation.

I will share some of the content.

I explained my income to the office and they indicated that I had not been claimed for the week I explained. Furthermore, I was told that I would have to file an application if I worked as a sole proprietor.
However, I had the Confirmation Number with me, so I told them that and then explained the situation again, and they corrected it.
I am glad that I can continue my application again.

The office staff was patient and helpful.

I guess the best thing to do is to call them patiently ！

Thank you Sunset for your advice.

I am a UI recipient, but I was also a sole proprietor, so I received an email for MEUC.
I proceeded to apply and found that
the requirement is that I must have received UI and PEUC from December 27, 2020, and
in my case, although I applied for the 1st PEUC in November after my UI ended,
I had over 7 months of UI overpayment and the 1st PEUC I have been in a situation where my first PEUC has not been working at all for more than 7 months due to UI overpayment,
so I thought that I do not fit into this eligibility period.
I think I will call you on a weekday, but
I know you may be one of the few here, but
there were some people like me who are sole proprietors and
UI, PEUC recipients, so
please share the progress of this MEUC. I would be very happy if you could share the progress of this MEUC.
Please do so.
