In filing for unemployment, is there a minimum amoint of earnings required to qualify?

I live in Ohio, worked in WV, and my employer paid into PA unemployment. Was told by one PA UC employee that I qualified for benefits and filed my claim. Ten minutes later, my dad attempted to file and was denied. We both worked the same job, same hours, same start date, and same lay off date. The person he talked to said that neither him nor I qualified due to the fact that we didn't earn the required income, although we worked and paid into the required quarters. I received 2 letters in the mail 4 days later. One says I qualify and the other says I don't.
