How Do You Claim Minnesota Unemployment Benefits?
Unemployment compensation is available to employees who have been fired from their jobs. When an employee loses his job in Minnesota he is eligible to apply for unemployment benefits. Once the application is complete, the employee’s former employer will be contacted to confirm or deny the information the employee provided on his or her application so that the unemployment office can determine whether or not you will receive unemployment benefits. Visit the Unemployment Insurance Minnesota website and click on the “Apply for Unemployment Insurance Benefits” link. Your social security number is your login name. Choose the “New Applicant” link and fill out the required information. This information is necessary to complete your unemployment application. Have your personal information handy as well as your employment records. Review your application and if it is correct, click on the “Submit” button. Print or record the confirmation number for your records. Call 651-296-3644 or 877-898-909
