Can you get unemployment benefits after a seasonal job ends?

Hello I was just wondering if you can get unemployment benefits after a seasonal job ends? This seasonal job was only 4 months and I live in California.

    It’s possible to get unemployment after being laid-off from a seasonal job, but in your case, I don’t think you would be able to claim any benefits. You only worked for 4 months. They base your claim on the money you earned in the first four of the last five quarters (the 12 month period begining 15 months ago). You just didn’t work long enough to claim.

    If, however, you were employed prior to this last job, you may have earned enough to claim.

    So, if you were employed and receiving covered wages for at least 6 months out of the last 12, I’d say file a claim and see what happens. You have nothing to lose, right?
