    What does no fault of your own mean when filling for unemployment?
    I was just wondering about unemployment benefits. I read somewhere that you can only qualify if you lose your job because of no fault of your own, what does that mean? So does that mean that if you quit you don't get it but if your fired you do? I have neither quit my job or gotten fired, this is just something that I've never understood how it works.

    Ordinarily it would mean you were not guilty of misconduct or not showing up for work on time continually. Being laid off for lack of work is no fault of yours neither is bad performance on the job if you can't get the hang of it. If you quit as an alternative to being fired that would be the same.

    Usually you only qualify if you are fired or laid off.

    I believe you must be fired or laid off to get unemployment. If you quit, that would fall under your fault because you decided you didn't want to work there anymore. To be no fault of your own, you must have not done anything wrong to get fired. I once got fired because a boss found out I was looking for another job. This qualified me for unemployment. Other reasons would be that they were downsizing, they wanted to start fresh, et. Some places have to give a reason and some states do not require that. You would also have to be past the trial or probationary period your employer specifies to rate unemployment.

    Exactly, except for even if you quit for good cause and tried to resolve the problem through ethical calculated means, you can still qualify. Also if you got fired for something they documented counseling you about or that was in a policy manual you signed that you read and understood or for complete insubordination, then you won't qualify!
