  1. 1

    I recently faced a tough situation with my job in California. My employer reduced my hours drastically from full-time to just 37 hours every two weeks, which has made it impossible for me to cover my bills. After a month of this, I realized I need to relocate back to my family, who live 175 miles away, where there are better job opportunities. However, I’m concerned about how this move will affect my unemployment benefits. I know I need to inform the EDD about my relocation, but I’m worried that since I would be effectively quitting my job, they might disqualify me from receiving benefits. I’ve heard from others that moving for a job can lead to losing benefits, and I’m feeling anxious about the whole situation.
