Yes, but the following applies: Only the "liable" state (where your work history qualified you for benefits) will pay the benefits, if any. You can file in the liable state, or where you live now and your state will act as the "agent" state, to coordinated the payments. Now, if you owe for overpayments, you need to disclose that so they can make adjustments in the benefits you're entitled to. To not do this may make you subject to unemployment fraud laws.
