One can find information about unemployment in North Carolina from a number of different sources. The North Carolina Employment Security Commission has information, as does their website.
If you are eligible for social security retirement (and I think for your age group the eligible age is 65), go ahead and apply for it while you apply for unemployment at the same time.
