Question details
Hi, My husband & I have been green card holders (Employment based thru my employer, prior Visa status L1 & L2) since August 2020. My husband recently lost his job, so I was hoping you could please clarify a few queries: • Is he eligible to apply for Unemployment benefits? • If yes, does this have any negative impact on our Citizenship/Naturalization process in the future? Truly appreciate your kind assistance. Thank you
ANSWER
Availing of unemployment benefits should have no impact on a green card holder's status or naturalization. Eligibility depends upon state law.
