    The answer to your question is on the letter that the state sent you – your Notice of Financial Determination.

    You know, the one that you should have read when you signed the form that said you read it.

    Yes.
    Depending on Ca. state law,you can earn up to the gross benefit amount each week plus any allowance.
    ie: Let us say that your gross benefit amount is $200.00/week.
    Ca. has a $20.00 allowance.
    You can earn up to $220.00 week.
    Your unemployment will be reduced by the gross wages you report each week that you file a claim.
    When reported wages reach or exceed your unemployment amount,you will not receive anu unemployment for that week.
