If there is any question about the amount of unemployment benefits you are entitled to receive, you will be scheduled for a telephone interview with a monetary representative.  An agency representative will call you at the scheduled time. While every attempt will be made to call you on schedule, delays can occur. You must be available for two hours after the time scheduled.

At the time of the interview, please have available proof of employment (pay stubs, W-2, etc.) for the last 18 months prior to filing your unemployment claim. If applicable, your former employer(s) will be sent a request for wage and separation information to complete and return by the time of the interview.

After the monetary interview you will be sent a determination explaining the amount of benefits (if any) you are entitled to receive. You should carefully review the information contained in your determination. If you disagree with the determination, you have the right to appeal. Instructions for filing an appeal are on your determination.
