| Before you ask "when" you need to find out *IF* you can collect
unemployment in your state after voluntarily leaving your job.
If yes, it would seem reasonable to expect to be elligible after
the number of weeks you were paid through - not the day after
getting your final pay.
This question was asked at a meeting a couple of weeks ago in NRO.
The "non-answer" was that Digital would not block someone applying
but they had no information about if anyone has successfully collected
since time hasn't run out for the 1st package yet.

As the author of .1 points out, you will need to discover "IF" you can
collect in New Hampshire. A phone call to your local New Hampshire
Employment Security Dept. office will undoubtedly answer that for you.
If past experience is any help, and assuming that you are eligible for
benefits, they probably wouldn't commence until you have waited the
number of weeks for which you received pay. For example, my wife was
laid off a few months ago. She didn't start to receive unemployment
benefits until she had waited four weeks, which equaled the amount of
time for which she had received severance/vacation pay from her
ex-employer.

| My understanding is that by accepting TFSO you have voluntarily
resigned and are thus ineligible from collecting unemployment.

| re: .2
Most progressive states have held that "Being asked to resign" is
termination. If not done properly, companies can be held to
significant compensatory and punitative damages.
If a person applies for unemployment and is turned down because
he/she techincally resigned, they can always appeal. I know one
individual who was harrased into leaving an organization, filed
a complaint with Job Service when denied, and eventually received
unemployement.
This is done, because too many resignations are actual firings or
layoffs.

Being "progressive" has never been something that New Hampshire was noted for.

This is what I heard, but don't know how true it is:
When you go into TMP, you have 4 weeks to find a job or take the
package. If you can't find a job in the 4 weeks and have to leave,
it's looked upon in Mass as being layed off. If you go into TMP and
take the package right away, it's looked upon as quiting. The reason
being that if you took it right away, you weren't interested in staying
employed.
I can see their point. BUT, like I said, I don't know how true this
is.
