Best Answer

Although unemployment laws vary from state to state, the purpose of unemployment compensation is to provide income to someone who has lost their job through no fault of their own. Thus, it is required that you have left the company involuntarily, and you are not eligible if you quit. Check with your state's unemployment commission to see what the requirements are to claim unemployment in your area. You are going to have to contact them to start benefits anyway - it never hurts to ask if your particular circumstance qualifies you for unemployment.
