As a Pennsylvanian if you are laid off from job in other State, Where to file a claim for unemployment benefits?

Answer 1

First confirm about the State/States you worked for and where the wages were paid during your base year.

If you have worked only for Pennsylvania during your base period, you will have to file your unemployment benefit claim with the same State where you worked. If you have worked and earned wages in more than one State during your base year period, you will have to file a Combined Wage Claim (CWC) with one of the States where you worked and were you were paid wages during your base year.

To know and claim your unemployment compensation in other state’s unemployment service you will have to call Unemployment Center of Pennsylvania at 1-888-313-7284.
