Hi all I've recently been laid off of my full time primary source of income. Unfortunately I also just started a temp PT position as well. I'm working on applying for unemployment which will be affected by the pt job and possibly PC as well.

If anyone has applied for unemployment while with PC I could use some help. I'm stumped on this one question if it's yes or no.

Would this answer by yes in regards to PC?:

Other than part-time work, on-call work, or owning a single-family rental unit, do you have a business or are you engaged in any activity which brings in or may bring in income?
