You may qualify for disability benefits during unemployment if you are unemployed and unable to work due to illness or injury not caused by your job. If you already filed a regular unemployment claim, the disability claim will be based on that claim.

Get the "Claim for Disability Benefits" (Form DS-1) by calling or writing your employer, union, One-Stop Career Center or the Division of Temporary Disability Insurance, PO Box 387, Trenton, NJ 08625-0387 (telephone 609-292-7060).  See DISABILITY INSURANCE PROGRAMS for additional information about applying for temporary disability benefits and to download a claim form directly from their website.
