Unemployment to 1099 Independent Contractor Suppposed to Be W-2 Employee
I was recently fired from my boss for assumptions that he made about me. He claimed I was recruiting off his sales floor and telling other sales floor about his lead source. So he fired me without talking to me or warning me. I've work for him for half of the year and he has hi workers as 1099 independent contractors even though we should all be W-2 employees. I've worked with other sales floors before his and have always been a W-2 employee. Is there anyway I can collect unemployment in this situation?

I only worked for this company for 4-6 months. Before this I worked on other sales floors as a W-2 employee. Are you saying there is no way to get unemployment under any circumstance? I have the SS-8 form filled out ready to send but have held off because I'm waiting to here back from my initial application for unemployment insurance. When I filled out the info for unemployment insurance I was eligible for like $500 per month...
