You will need to provide your name, address, Social Security number, and information about your last job. You will also need to answer questions about your eligibility for benefits.

If you are approved for benefits, you will receive a weekly payment that will help you cover your expenses while you are unemployed. The amount of your benefit will depend on your earnings and the number of dependents you have.

You can file for unemployment benefits in any Georgia county. According to the Georgia Department Of Labor (DOL). The Unemployment Insurance (UI) program provides temporary income for workers who are unemployed through no fault of their own and who are either looking for another job, have a definite recall to their jobs within 6 weeks of the last day worked, or are in approved training. The funding for unemployment insurance benefits comes from taxes paid by employers. Workers do not pay any costs. Eligibility for benefits is determined based on past wages, reason for job separation, and availability and job search requirements. Claims are effective on the date they are filed and are not retroactive to the last day worked. https://dol.georgia.gov/get-unemployment-assistance
