What is a separation packet?
The separation packet (known as the UC-62T/UC-61) is a comprehensive guide to filing for unemployment benefits under the new program. The packet includes the UC-61 Separation Notice, also known as the “pink slip,” to be completed by the employer. In addition to local DOL numbers, this packet provides the questions that will be asked by the ‘Dial to File’ TeleBenefits automated system, along with the list of information a caller will need to have handy when filing a claim.
