Did you live and work in the same State?

• If you live and work in two different states, you generally need to file for unemployment benefits in the state in which you WORKED NOT the state in which you LIVE.


Unemployment Tips

• Verify the state in which you must file before you spend the 30 minutes or more filing online in the state in which you live.
• An example of this is people who WORK in Charlotte, North Carolina but LIVE in South Carolina (right across the border) have to file for benefits in NORTH Carolina – NOT SOUTH Carolina.
