Can you collect unemployment if you are moving to a differen
NO. You have to be "available to work" in that state. That is called fraud if you attempt to collect while living in a different state.
Another opinion:
Actually you can. I just moved from California to Colorado and EDD interviewed me again, but I still qualify for it. I explained that I could not find work where I was.
Transfers:
Also, I am pretty sure you can transfer the benefits. IE: if you start your claim in California and then move to Texas you will still be able to collect in Texas but not at the same amount as in CA, probably a little less. This is what they told me about 5 years ago when I was on unemployment and was thinking of moving to another state.
YES. my brother moved from CA to MN and collected the maximum CA unemployment there. He also filed after moving to MN.
First answer is absolutely false! Do a little research before posting. If you are currently recieving benefits in one state and you move to another, you still recieve benefits from the original state. You recieve benefits from the state in which you worked for the past 18 months. Where you paid your payroll taxes. All you have to do is provide your new address to your "original" state of residence and they will mark you as an interstate payee. You then continue to file your weekly certification as normal. You will recieve the exact same amount of benefits, it does not change. You are required to seek employment in the new state you moved to. It's that simple. I know this to be true because I recently moved and just took these steps.
