Hoping someone might be able to answer this question since I can't seem to find an answer online or get through to anyone at customer service.
I recently filed for unemployment because I lost my full time job. I do have a second job as an independent contractor (brings in an income of $500 or less per month) and I receive a 1099 at the end of the year. I only noted the full time employer on the benefits application.
My questions is, should I have noted the work I do as an independent contractor in the section asking about additional employers? That section asks for an end date...and if I plan on continuing my work as an independent contractor then there would be no end date. I was confused, and couldn't reach anyone so I left that section blank.

Blank is fine. Don't worry about it. Just be sure to report the gross income on your weekly claim forms when filing for benefits. Income is reported when earned, not when paid.
