Staying Eligible for Benefits
To remain eligible, you must request payment as scheduled; respond when contacted;
be able, available, and actively seeking full-time work; and meet your work search
requirements and keep good records of your work search activities.
You are no longer eligible when your benefits run out or you return to full-time work.
Be aware of these additional requirements:
■ Special Reemployment Activities
TWC requires you to participate in special reemployment activities if you are
likely to run out of benefits before you find work. If selected, your Workforce
Solutions office sends a letter, and you must participate as instructed.
■ Keep a Work Search Log
K eep a detailed work search log because we may request copies to verify your
activities at any time during your benefit year. We enclosed a sample log with this
handbook. Get more copies at ui.texasworkforce.org or make your own, provided it
contains the same details that are on our log. Review the Unemployment Benefits
Work Search Guidelines we sent or find them on www.texasworkforce.org/
unemploymentbenefits. Your unemployment claim may be audited at any time
so keep your work search records for at least one year after filing your claim.
■ Accept Suitable Work
TWC cannot pay benefits if you refuse to apply for or accept suitable work
without good cause. We determine suitable work by reviewing:
− your experience, qualifications, and training
− working conditions and pay for similar work in your area
− risks to your health, safety, or morals
− distance to work from your home and local commuting patterns
− how long you have been unemployed
− whether you have considered jobs that pay 75 percent of your normal
wage by the eighth week of unemployment
