Can i file for unemployment if i got laid off about 8 months ago?

Question

i have been actively searching for a job as well

Answer 1

you should have filed 8 months ago when you first got laid off. You can file, I am not sure if they will approve you or not. You must have been at your last job at least 6months. And I think that the unemployment is only good for a year after you get laid off. So you may only receive it for 4 months unless they go back and pay you for that last 8 months, It is worth finding out about.  

Answer 2

i think you probably missed the cut off time for that but you can always do a little research and see  

Answer 3

Hello. I believe you are supposed to file right away. As benefits are on a yearly basis. You should be eligible for benefits at least the remainder of this year if not more. Call free hot line now at:
