Please answer a simple Math question: *
If we have had a claim opened back up due to the current Corona virus and the account is from 9 years ago, how do we access our PIN number? I want to verify that my bank information is correct before requesting payment but cannot because it asks for the PIN number which I have forgotten over the course of 9 years. I also cannot get through to any phone number listed.
Brianna,
We understand this might be a difficult time for you. We’re anticipating a shortage of staff across unemployment offices due to the massive surge in UI applications considering the pandemic. We advise against calling or visiting the office, as you may not get a response instantly.
Your state may have activated “Extended Benefits (EB)” authorized by the federal government. We recommend you apply for UI benefits online. For more information, please visit your state’s official Unemployment website.
I am self -employed but had to close my business per Govenor’s authority. Can I apply for unemployment insurance under the provisions of state guidelines? Thank you
Under the new guidelines you may be eligible for unemployment insurance. Please click here to read more. We recommend you to apply for UI benefits online. For more information, please visit your state’s official website.

I have the same respond that myuiclaiman it’s already registered, i couldnt even find any confirmation email that supposed to be expired in 90 minutes after my ui registration.
My boss is closing his business so therefore I no longer have a job. I have been employed with him since August 2017 and my last day with him is 03/26/2018. I noticed that unemployment asks for what looks like 3 years of employment. I quit my last 2 jobs for better pay will this hurt my claim from my current employer?
Karen,
In most cases, it’s only your last job that matters. If you’re being laid off due to involuntary reasons, you can be eligible to claim Unemployment Insurance benefits. Please consider applying.
I was laid off due to a reduction in force 12/6/17. I received my last paycheck week ending 12/15/17. Starting 12/16/17 I will receive severance pay for 16 weeks. Can I file for unemploiyment as of 12/16/17 or do I have to wait until the severance pay ends?
John,
Please wait until the severance payout ends. You can apply towards the end of it.
I just discovered that my employer doesn’t pay unemployment tax on my paychecks stub? Please advise.
Christine,
Under such circumstances, you may not qualify to receive UI benefits in the future. Please call the Unemployment Office for further details.
I have called the inquiry call center line, the CUB line, and the appeals line to try and find out why my payment wasn’t issued to my card. I’ve been hung up on 7 TIMES and never once transferred to an agent. I CANNOT get anything I need done through the automated system. Everytime it says I need to talk with an agent, I get hung up on or returned to the main menu without the option of talking with an agent.
I MUST talk with someone to get my question answered, it’s not available online or in your FAQ. Who can I call? How do I reach someone? Can someone just call me?
Please help me.
Brad
Brad,
Please note we’re a private forum and would not be able to arrange a call back from the authorities. Please visit the official website to find out additional contact details.
I’ve been an operations supervisor for 8 years and have been dating the secretary for 11 the manager that promoted me knew about us as well as every manager since. I was just informed that it was not acceptable and am now being demoted as well as take a pay cut.
You will not be eligible since unemployment insurance is only extended to those who become unemployed due to involuntary reasons.
I am trying to find out if I am able to start a claim with your system. I have misplaced my pin number and cannot continue with the automated system.
Please advise.
Thank You
Please call the Claims Center to find our further about resetting the PIN and other credentials.
I tried to call the claims center because I lost my PIN, and without knowing my PIN, they will not refer me to a representative. What should I do?
Jan,
There should be an option to reset the PIN. Please explore or consider visiting an office in the vicinity for immediate help.
How do I call someone after hrs had the number but lost it don’t have access to a computer
Chris,
I am not sure what you mean. You’ll only be able to call during office hours only.
I am drawing social security and just laid from full time job can I draw unemployment?
Some states allow provision of both while some don’t.
Please call the Unemployment Office in your state for further clarification.
I live in Colorado springs and I’ve been working for 3 months. Recently, my schedule changed and going to see if there’s another shift and I’m not sure if they may fire me for possibly not being able to work the new shift. So I wanted to if I would be eligible for unemployment even just after 3 months and earning about $3,000 already. If not, how long does someone have to work to be eligible because I find the base pay thing a bit confusing?
Jim,
Firstly, if they fire you due to voluntary reasons, you will not qualify. Do check the Benefits Calculator to ascertain the eligibility. The tool considers the recent most base period.
I am filing “Job attached” unemployment. When I did the estimator it showed that I would be paid less if I claimed before 12/30/2015. My question is, if I claim now 12/7/15 and it takes 4-6 weeks to get approved and then 1 week for a waiting period, I will be after 12/31/2015. Will I get paid the higher amount that was showing if I waited until 12/31/15 to get the claim started? I can wait until 1/1/16 to receive my first check, but if it takes 4-6 weeks plus a waiting week, I need to file now. Just want to know if I can get the larger amount of money because I will not be receiving a check until January.
I don’t think it will be a case of bigger payment if you file later.
Please call the claims center for further information in this regard.
I was just layed off and wanted to know if I can start a claim for unemployment if I received a severance package. If not when can I file a claim after the severance has expired.
Please consider filing for Unemployment Insurance after the severance pay period is over.

Hi! I am to be let go then end of August. I have a direct sales job at 100% commission and can not make my quota. I completed the benefits calculator and it shows $454 per week. It doesn’t ask me about a pension I rcv from a previous employer. How does the receipt of pension payments affect my potential UI payments? Thanks
It may or may not affect your unemployment. When you complete the actual application there will be questions that help determine what impact (if any) a pension payment will have on your benefits.
Please help me change my tax withholding on my claim. Since the beginning, i have had federal and state taxes taken out each time. I believe enough taxes have been take out for the year. I wanted switch to having NO taxes taken out.
The first time I attempted to make this change on the self service myuiclaimant site, I thought I had changed it, but after saving my selection, it did not show a change. A few days later I checked and it still showed the change I had requested had not been made. I made a second attempt and waited a few more days. After checking, i saw no change was made, it still showed federal ansd state taxes being taken out. Last night I tried again to make this change and the drop down menu blocked me from trying! Can you do this manually for me? Thank you for your help!
