I was working F/T as an Uber and Lyft driver until recently where there hasn't been as much business. It looks like I'll be eligible to collect unemployment with the new laws that were passed.

My question is if I were to start a P/T (20 hours a week) 1099 work from home job, once I start collecting will they just take off the amount I am earning from my UE?

So let's say I get $800 a week UE but I made $200...so I will only get $600 UE for that particular week? Or am I better off not even looking for a job right now?

When i was collecting in NJ years ago I was still able to work P/T and collect full UE benefits providing I didn't make over a certain amount. I am not sure if it's the same way out here


thank you

EDIT: I think i found my answer? Seventy-five (75) percent of your gross weekly earnings will be deducted
from your weekly benefit amount each week you report earnings
