No, unemployment compensation and wages are both taxable income and will both likely be reported. ?So you're ok as far as taxes. However, it IS unemployment fraud, if you haven't reported accurate information to the unemployment people. ?If you think it's tough getting a good job now, wait until you go looking for a job with a conviction for felony fraud on your record. ?Oh well, they say that you get free lunches when you work at a McDonalds.

This is not merely tax fraud; it is fraud and God only know what other crimes too.

It is not tax fraud, but it is a crime. You should stop taking unemployment and contact an attorney immediately.
