In some states, taking a contract position or starting a business may turn you into a self-employed businessperson and disqualify you from receiving unemployment benefits. States handle self-employment differently. New York may take away your benefits if it finds out you're preparing to start a business.
Oregon, meanwhile, has a program that lets you collect benefits while starting a business. Massachusetts takes a middle ground. It allows you to collect benefits while self-employed part-time, but cuts you off if you work for yourself full-time, even if you make no income from your new business. Be careful, too, that if you take a temporary job, you're taken on as an employee, not as a contractor.
In some states, becoming a contractor can cause the unemployment office to consider you to be self-employed, making you ineligible for benefits. In other states, the employer can call you a contractor, but if you're supervised, directed and controlled by the employer, the state will consider you an employee, so you'll likely be eligible for unemployment benefits when the job ends.
The bottom line: It's easy to blunder yourself out of benefits by taking a temporary, part-time, contract or volunteer job, so don't do it without first knowing your state's rules.
