How Do You File Weekly Unemployment Claims?
Although unemployment insurance is something that state and federal governments collaborate on, your state government administers it. If you have never filed an unemployment claim before, it may seem like a confusing process. But once you know where to look and what information to use, the process becomes much easier. You can file by phone or via the Internet; it is up to you. Your state government will require some information from you before you can file. Contact your local department of labor to find out which service administers the unemployment service. The names vary from state to state. For example in the state of Oklahoma it is referred to as the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission; in Nevada, it is the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation. You can do an Internet search with your state name and the term “unemployment filing” to find the right website. Read the information available on the website and make important notes on your filing information. N
