CA Unemployment Insurance Eligibility for Independent Contractor?

Through all of 2008 I was working full-time for a company as an independent contractor (non-employee). I was recently let go along with a number of other employees and contractors. Am I eligible for unemployment insurance compensation?

  1. Unfortunately you are not, just due to the fact that you were an independent contractor and not part of the company's payroll. Best of Luck !
  2. Did you, as a self employed person, PAY unemployment taxes to the state? If not, no, you're not eligible.
