I'm going to assume that you have already been paid by this employer ...probably in or about 4 months ago. Your question does raise an interesting point for others to understand. More specifically, when you tendered your resignation, providing your employer with a two week notice, by not accepting your notice or in the alternative, by not paying you in lieu of notice, your employer has turned an otherwise "voluntary quit" into a "lay off" permitting you to apply and receive unemployment compensation benefits until you begin what presumably is your next job. Best of luck to you, Rob Fortgang
