   First of all, in the state of Indiana "NO" part time employee can get state unemployment.

Not true. From the IN Dept. of Workforce Development Handbook:

To establish a valid claim, an individual must have total wage credits during the base period that are at least one and one-fourth (1.25) times greater than the claimant's highest quarter wages. The claimant must also have base period wages totaling at least $2,750, with $1,650 of those wages earned in the last six (6) months of the base period.

http://www.in.gov/dwd/2427.htm#iib

For a full-time worker (40 hours per week since you insist on that number) to earn a total of $1,650 in two consecutive quarters, he would only need to be paid $1.60 an hour.

When a person applies for unemployment benefits, nowhere is he asked how many hours a week he worked. All that matters is how much he earned.

I thought we agreed to drop the subject. I have no desire to continue this discussion, but I will not allow you to publish blatant falsehoods.
