If you live in New York and work in New York where do you file an unemployment claim?

Answer:You file for unemployment from the "liable state" which collects the unemployment insurance from the employer you worked for. In this case, the "liable state" is New York. If you work 18 months only in New York, but live outside the state, you MUST file with New York. If you worked in 2 or more states, you can file in any of them, or even combine your earnings from several employers. See the Related Link below for more details.


If you are employed by a New York company but live in Georgia who pays unemployment.?

Whichever state the employer pays its unemployment taxes to is the"liable" state. If you WORK in Georgia, as well as live there, it probably is Georgia. In any event, both states are probably involved in the interstate unemployment benefits program where you can apply to either and they would work it out between themselves.


If your husband has orders to New York and you leave your job in Louisiana can you get unemployment and if yes would you apply with New York or Louisiana?

Based on the information on page 5, ii, of the Related Link below, your concern seems to be one of the exceptions on quitting that is allowed. To be safe, check with the unemployment office in your state to verify it, though. Because Louisiana is the "liable state" (the one your employer paid his unemployment taxes to) it would be the state to file in.


Where do you file for unemployment insurance if you live in Pennsylvania but work in New York?

You file for unemployment from the "liable state" which collects the unemployment insurance from the employer you worked for. In this case, the "liable state" is New York. You can file in Pennsylvania, as the "agent state", but it is New York that Pennsylvania would contact in your behalf.


You are working and will have to quit your job to follow your husband can you apply to unemployement in the new state you will be moving in and get benefits?

First, some states allow you to collect unemployment if you have to move because your spouse relocates, in which case it would be from the state you moved FROM (the "liable state"). Secondly, you could not collect from the state you move to because that state did not collect unemployment taxes from your former employer (hence, not the "liable state")


If you live in New Jersey and receive New York unemployment where do you pay taxes on it?

Yes you will report the unemployment payment amount that you received on your New York income tax return and could owe some taxes on the amount of UI received as a resident of NY.
