A: It sounds like you were performing work that exceeded the earnings limit, leading to a disqualification from receiving certain benefits. Under section 1256la, earning more than five times your weekly benefit can trigger this disqualification. The benefits amounting to 1260a likely refer to the specific provision that outlines these rules.

Since you mentioned winning an appeal, your disqualification has been overturned, and you may now be eligible to receive benefits again. It's important to keep any documentation from your appeal handy in case you need to reference it in future communications with the EDD.

Moving forward, ensure that you report your earnings accurately to avoid any future issues. If your employment situation changes, notify the EDD promptly to maintain your eligibility. If you have any further questions or need assistance, reaching out directly to the EDD or a local support service can provide additional guidance tailored to your situation.
