Unemployment Eligibility Requirements By State

Eligibility_RequirementsDue to the fact the each state administrates their unemployment benefit program differently and has different eligibility requirements it’s always best to visit your state website to view that information.  After viewing the eligibility requirements you can (on some State’s Unemployment Website) file your claim online.

Accessing eligibility requirement on your state website can sometimes be time consuming so we have made that information available below. Just click on your state link for information on your Unemployment Eligibility Requirements.

Remember you can always visit you local unemployment office and speak with a counselor regarding your state eligibility requirements and apply for your benefits – no appointment needed.

  1. I have not worked in nine years. I keep getting letters from Michigan Dept of Labor saying they are offering me more unemployment money, You can’t go to their office, it seems to be closed, you can’t talk to anyone on the phone, you just get a recording telling you to go online and appeal to get more benefits.
    I mailed in and emailed in and faxed in fraud reports, I get back a nice letter telling me how to file to get more benefits.
    Now I get a 1099 for $5,500.00 that I am supposed to pay tax on.
    So I sent another fraud report and today I get a letter from them saying I am approved for more benefits and how to appeal their decision and try to get een more benefits.
    I have received no money from them, I asked where they were sending the money, no reply. They have my address to send me info on getting more benefits, so where are they sending the money?
    China? Russia? This is pure insanity.
