Also, we have developed a friendly Calculator tool which helps you calculate your benefit amount for free.

We built this as a hobby site and operates without ads. We might have to put some non-intrusive and non-spammy ads in near future, but this website will remain free to use. Your feedback is very important to help us serve you better. Leave us a message.

    I have been selfemployed for all my life in the family business. I inherited this business upon my fathers death in 1984. Business is a C corporation and is seasonal and consists of irrigation and landscaping installation. I have paid into unemployment all my life.
    We are a small family business with 3 employees including myself. We have no income during the Winter so I applied for benefits and was denied. I would like to know reasons for denial. Thanks

      Seasonal jobs do not qualify. You will not be eligible for UI benefits.
