6 Steps Procedure To File For Unemployment

 

The Employment Development Department manages unemployment claims. The EDD released guidelines on the documentation and information you should have with you before filing a claim.

Step - 1:You will be asked to provide your driver’s license information, social security number, name, address, and phone number.

Step - 2: You must provide the last date that you worked.

Step - 3:If you are working part-time and applying for unemployment – you must provide the number of hours you work each week.

Step - 4:You must report any departure benefits provided by your employer.

Step - 5: You also need to provide contact information for your last employers such as a physical address, phone number, and mailing address.

Step - 6: You will be asked the reason for your departure. If you quit or were fired then you may have a follow-up telephone interview.

If you believe that your employer did not respect your rights under the law or your contract then you may have a valid claim. You may want to speak with a Los Angeles employment law attorney to review the circumstances and determine the best course of action.
