Recently moved here to Sioux city from Laramie Wyoming and am needing to find out how to file unemployment from Wyoming?
If you left the previous job voluntarily, you will not be eligible.
Otherwise, please consider filing for UI benefits from the state where your employment was based.
I received unemployment from two different states over the last year, but neither one sent me a 1099 form.
What should I do?

Please visit the official websites for more information. Most of them have it available for a download from the site.

I filed a claim but I have only received the debit card. How do I know if my claim went through?
Please check for messages in your e mail.
You can also get an update either by calling the claims center or by logging onto to your account online. Generally, it will take a couple of days for the money to credit the account after receiving the debit card.
