Retirement and unemployment in Virginia
My husband is retired Military after serving 22 years in the USN. He was working in the private sector and was laid off. He gets a monthly retirement. My question is. In the state of Virginia does your retirement count as income? We were told that it is counted as income and he will not receive benefits from unemployment because of that reason. I was appalled to say the least. He has worked his whole life and never drew anything from the government agency. It just seems unfair that they can use his retirement against him.
