If you are terminated you should be eligible for benefits. Go to your Department of Workforce web site for your State and you should find the answer.

In Canada you will most likely be rejected and have to appeal. The liberal government made it hard for individuals who are dismissed without cause even if there is a doubt. I have experienced it myself. First to the tribunal , if not allowed then to federal court and yoyu do not get to question anything at all, which also is a violation under the charter. Just be careful, if you have no proof or witnesses, and you are refused after applying then find work quick, you have less than a 50% chance of winning, and fighting based on principal is not going to feed you, plus the libs new that most people who need EI cannot afford a good lawyer for the fight. Your choice.

Depends on your state. But seriously, you will look for a new job right?
And by the way, unless you had a contract for work you were most likely an AT-WILL-EMPLOYEE meaning your employer doesn't need to give you a cause for dismissal.
Nevertheless, you should, depending on your state, be eligible for unemployment at a rate based on how long you've worked and what you were making but it won't equal what you were making.
However, your employer will be able to challenge your claim. So if you were doing something that caused them to let you go, you may be SOL.

NO, you cannot get unemployment insurance benefits if you're dismissed without cause. You can check this out at the
employment office.

As long as you have been let go THROUGH NO FAULT OF YOUR OWN, you should be eligable for benefits. If you try to get benefits, the employment office will contact your former employer to verify your termination, and why it happened.

Depends on the state and alot of times you have to push it to the hilt and many employers will suddenly find a "reason" even if you don't know what it is.

What state are you in?
For better or worse (depending on your respective), the state of CA is pretty liberal, and you should be able to collect some benefit.

It sounds as though you qualify for unemployment. Go down and sign up, what have you got to lose!

Yes, in Canada. I guess it depends where you live.
