被layoff后怎么申请失业金

人在华州西雅图，被layoff后有serverance pacakge。有房贷车贷各种。。。慌
这情况怎么申请失业金？需要什么特定条件吗，比如身份，前公司工龄，存款不能超过多少之类的？
是要等拿完serverance 后才申请吗？
希望有懂得经验的地友能给个攻略，希望大家能共度时艰。

求问楼主有任何操作吗，结果怎么样

做了点research，结合这两个文章，我决定不申请了，总之批不批不确定，就求个安心吧

WA官网的handbook上eligibility明确写了一点是：
if you are mentally and physically able to work, as well as "available" to work without restrictions that would prevent you from accepting work. H1B找工申请过的应该很清楚这个work without restrictions意味着什么

h1b是不用想了，至少绿卡才能申请失业金

H1B照样可以，不然交的unemployment insurance的钱可以退回吗？

失业金绿卡和公民可以申请

h1b是不用想了，至少绿卡才能申请失业金

opt可以，h1b领了不合法

请问OPT怎么申请失业金哇？

没有这一条 https://edd.ca.gov/en/unemployment/eligibility/

网上搜的：
If you are in the U.S. on a visa that's tied to your employment, such as an H-1B or L-1 visa, you could be facing loss of status along with loss of your job. That means you will have to leave the U.S. soon, unless you find new employment or are able to change your status.

For example, if you are in H-1B status and lose your job, you will likely not qualify for unemployment benefits because your work authorization is tied to a specific sponsor (employer), and you are not immediately available for reemployment.

我的severance 是两周一发，我申请benefit就被据了

抓紧找工作，哪怕pay cut；做好卖房的准备，一旦需要的时候能够立马上市出手（至少2个月lead time）。
