The Tennessee Employment Security Law receives this insurance from employers. If this is the case with you under some circumstances you may be eligible for benefits even though you have some part time work, as long as you earn less than the weekly benefit amount. If you are eligible you may claim, if you are physically able to work and available to accept suitable work. There is one week of waiting in which no payment will be made but thereafter you will receive the benefit accorded to you each week. You will be required to report any earnings during these benefit weeks. Anyone who makes false statements or withholds information may be disqualified for up to a year for any benefits.
You and your employer can be prosecuted for knowingly making false statements. If you are overpaid you are required to repay the amount.
