You file in the "liable state" which is the one where the company paid your employment security taxes to the state. Most states are members of the interstate unemployment compensation program, where you can file where you live, but have to identify your company's IRS tax number and address

Can you file for unemployment if you left a company to start your own?

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.

Can you get unemployment if you worked for a nonprofit organization in Ohio?

Religious nonprofits have the option to not pay unemployment to the state. If they choose not to pay unemployment then the employee cannot collect unemployment. If they do pay unemployment costs to the state then the employee can collect unemployment benefits. Nonreligious organizations do have to pay unemployment, but they can pay the state one of two ways. As a state tax rated employer (same as a for profit company) or as a direct reimbursurer. In this case the employee is able to collect unemployment benefits. Referenced from www.chooseust.com


Can you receive unemployment benefits if your company moved out of state?

Can you still collect your Ohio unemployment compensation after your company files bankruptcy?

If your company has been paying its unemployment taxes to the state all along, its being bankrupt won't hurt your unemployment benefits because those are paid to you from the state's pool of taxes collected from all the employers. Of course, you still have to qualify as any other claimant, as far as the state is concerned.
