I've been on medical leave from my job in Tennessee for a while now due to my disability, and unfortunately, my employer couldn't accommodate my needs, leading to my termination. My last official day of employment is tomorrow, which means I'll also lose my health insurance benefits. I applied for SSI a while back, but my case is still pending. In the meantime, I've been actively searching for part-time work that can accommodate my situation, but I haven't had much luck yet. I'm trying to stay positive, but it's been tough. I have some questions about unemployment benefits in Tennessee. Can I apply for them while I'm looking for part-time work? I've heard mixed opinions on this, especially regarding how it might affect my ongoing disability case. Some say that if I'm unemployed and seeking full-time work, it could impact my SSI application, but I'm not sure how it works with part-time jobs. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!
