Under the provisions of the Pennsylvania Unemployment Compensation (UC) Law, I am registered with the 
Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry as:

The UC Law can provide you with an income during periods when you are either partially or totally unemployed 
through no fault of your own.
If you become UNEMPLOYED or your HOURS ARE REDUCED due to LACK OF WORK, the company, department, 
agency, commission, or bureau where you worked may provide you with a completed Form UC-1609, How to 
Apply for Unemployment Compensation (UC) Benefits.
IMPORTANT
Your  UC  application  will  be  dated  effective  the  week  in  which  you  actually  file  the  application  for  benefits.  You 
should file a new claim or reopen an existing claim during the first week in which you are unemployed or that your 
hours are reduced. You may risk losing some benefit eligibility if you file after the first week you are unemployed.
NOTE: To file an application for UC benefits, you will need to provide your:
 •  Social Security Number
 •  Alien registration number (if not a U.S. citizen)
 •  Complete mailing and home address
 •  Name, address, and account number of employer(s) from Form UC-1609
 •  Dates of employment and reasons for leaving
 •  Most recent pay stub (optional but helpful)
 •  Personal Identification Number (PIN) (if you have one from a prior claim)
You  may  file  your  new  application,  reopen  an  existing  claim  or  get  information  about  the  UC  Program  online  at 
www.uc.pa.gov, or by calling the UC Service Center at 888-313-7284. TTY: (Hearing Impaired) at 888-334-4046.
When  claiming  UC  benefits,  you  must  report gross wages that you earned during any week for which you are 
claiming UC benefits. Computer crossmatching is used to detect the illegal receipt of UC payments resulting from 
unreported work and earnings, as well as unreported pensions.
A person who knowingly makes a false statement or knowingly withholds information to obtain UC benefits commits 
a criminal offense under section 801 of the UC Law, 43 P.S. §871, and may be subject to a fine, imprisonment, 
restitution and loss of future benefits.
