If you lost your job through no fault of your own, you can file a claim and apply for unemployment  insurance benefits. However, you will need to register for work at www.ncesc.com and be actively  seeking work during the UI benefit week. You will also need to file a claim for every calender week of benefits for claims requested.

Be warned that filing for the claim initially can be a long process and can be as long as 30 minutes. Make sure you have ready access to information that is needed and also your information  will be provided and registered for any potential job openings as one of the requirements it that you are actively looking for a job. You can file your initial claim here.

The Emergency Unemployment compensation allows an individual to receive up to 53 weeks of Emergency Unemployment Compensation and this benefit will extend till Sat, Jul 31 2010.

Here are tips for filing the claim successfully:

1) Be prepared with information such as your pay stub which should have your pay rate in your last employment.

2) Be prepared to spend as much as 30 minutes.

3) You might want to Save Work & Exit periodically since if there are any problems, you will not lose all the application work that you put in.

4) Giving your email address is optional but allows you confirm your successful application.

5) www.nesc.com does provide a online job search database that you should try.
