Are partial benefits different than regular unemployment benefits?
Yes. Your employer will receive notice that you have filed a claim for partial benefits and your weekly benefit amount. During any week you earn less than your weekly benefit amount because of a lack of work, your employer is required to provide a Statement of Partial Unemployment stating your hours and wages for the week. To obtain your partial benefits, you must enter the name(s) of other employer(s) for which you worked during the week, the gross wages earned from each, sign the form, and return within 14 days of receiving it to:
