I hope someone can help me with my Unemployment Insurance regarding Furlough ?

It says I must be able and ready for work each week. You are able and available to accept full-time work. 

Update:

I'm confused. So I still have my job but they want me to find work anyway? I'm not working because they closed due to Covid. I don't want to find another job. So do I need to cancel it?

    No, you don't need to cancel it.  The ready, able & willing means that you aren't goofing off, refusing to work and that when the state opens again and your employer calls you back to work, you can go on the very next business day, because you aren't on vacation half way around the world.

    It means that if you don't go back to work when your employer calls you back you lose your unemployment.

    If you want unemployment, you have to be willing and able to accept employment. If you don't want to accept employment, then you are not eligible.

    No. You are unable to accept employment due to the covid 19 shut down of your job and all other jobs. as you are not an essential worker.
