Will taking unemployment affect the removal of conditions?

[Zackks 1]

My wife who is about half way through her 2-year green card has had a job with a school district as a para since last fall.  With the looming Coronavirus stuff, we are anticipating that she'll likely get laid off for at least a couple of weeks and potentially more.  During that period it sounds like she might be eligible for unemployment but we're wondering if that could impact that removal of restrictions coming up next year.

No effect at all.......

Unemployment doesn’t count as being a public charge because it is self-funded. Employers pay into an unemployment fund and laid-off workers are paid from that fund. It’s not funded by the taxpayer.

I was just wondering the same. I am a permanent resident. My N400 interview supposed to be in 12 days but most likely get cancelled because of Virus... anyways my job has been so slow we are probably going to get lay off very soon and probably need unemployment but afraid it may affect my citizenship. :(
