No it’s not exactly what you said. You both said the same thing he just dumbed it down for everyone.

You were both correct in what you said except for him saying you were incorrect. But you have to admit he did say it a bit clearer.

So I took the VLOA back in May and I applied in California for unemployment. California denied me because my wages are reported in Texas and I was told to apply in Texas. By now it doesn’t matter to me but I would like to know if anyone knows how a Californian would go about getting unemployment if it ever actually came down to that.

I don’t think you’ll be eligible for normal unemployment, but if they extend the Covid payments, you should be eligible for those. Just report your present income and see what they say.
Also, save the California filing. You may be able to backdate Texas compensation to that filing date.

Your taxes are assessed based on where you live, not work, so I would think unemployment would be the same, but again, not sure. I do know that employers have to pay a matching tax on FICA, but that is federal. It could still be assessed on that and distributed to the states.

While the aviation industry, particularly airlines, are an extreme example, there are plenty of people around the country that live in a state other than they work. Usually just much closer in proximity.

It will be handled appropriately when you file online.
