Do I qualify for unemployment benefits?
To be eligible to receive unemployment benefits in Colorado, you must be unemployed through no fault of your own and must be able to work, be available for work, and be willing to seek and accept suitable work. The Unemployment Insurance Program requests information from both the claimant and the employer as to the reasons for the job separation. Those facts are then evaluated according to the requirements as stated in the Colorado Employment Security Act. http://www.coworkforce.com/UIB/benefits_faq.asp#eligibility How do I file for unemployment benefits?
