Unemployed? Fired?
Quit? Laid Off? - Searching for a New Job?
The
jobless rate has seen
improvement, but millions are still
unemployed. You may have become one of the many
victims of companies that have down-sized or gone
completely under.
Our state by state directory can be of great assistance to all
individuals who are currently unemployed and would
like to file a new claim to collect unemployment
benefits.
If you are already receiving benefits which are
about to expire, you may be eligible to receive
additional benefits by applying for an
Extension.
Begin
by selecting your state under "Start Here". You will be
presented with resources to guide you in the filing
process of a new or continued unemployment
application, plus links that assist
job seekers in finding employment. Most every
state provides you with the ease of filing an unemployment
claim online. A few
states do require you to apply in person at a local state
unemployment office, but you will still find valuable resources
here such as contact information, continuing claim
details and assistance with helping you find new
employment.
Be
sure to check out the Financial Aid Resources listed
in each state. You
may qualify for multiple benefits including
Government grants that you never re-pay. Plus,
find local jobs in your area.
