Important Information

  • Before you can file a claim, you’ll need your name, address, social security number, and the details of all employers from April 2014 onward
  • State and federal law dictate whether you’re eligible for UI benefits. Just because you submit an application doesn’t mean you’ll be approved
  • Even if you’re approved, benefits won’t be issued immediately
  • UI benefits are terminal, which means they don’t go on indefinitely; you can only claim them for a specified period of time, or until your benefits run out – whichever term is shorter
  • Benefits are calculated based on your past income. Bear in mind that your UIB won’t match your former pay rate; it will be a percentage of what you made before

Be completely forthcoming when completing your UIB application. Incorrect information may lead to a delay or even an overpayment of benefits. Fraudulent applications will result in hefty fines. Depending on the scope of deception, it could lead to incarceration.
