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 department, agency, 
commission, or bureau where you worked MUST provide you with a completed  Form UC-1609, How to Apply 
for Unemployment Compensation (UC) Bene�ts. If you do not receive a completed  Form UC-1609, you should 
request one from your supervisor. 	
IMPORTANT 	
Your  UC  application  will  be  dated  effective  the  week  in  which  you  actually  �le  the  application  for  bene�ts.  You 
should �le a new claim or reopen an existing claim during the �rst week in which you are unemployed or that your 
hours are reduced. You may risk losing some bene�t eligibility if you �le after the �rst week you are unemployed. 
NOTE: To �le an application for UC bene�ts, you will need to provide your: 
• Social Security Number 
•  Alien Registration Number (if not a U.S. citizen) 
•  Complete Mailing and Home Address 
•  Name and Address of Employer(s) from Form UC-1609

You  may  �le  your  new  application,  reopen  an  existing  claim  or  get  information  about  the  UC  Program  online  at

You may �le your application or get information about the UC Program by calling the UC Service Center in your 
area at 888-313-7284. TTY: (Hearing Impaired) at 888-334-4046. 
When  claiming  UC  bene�ts,  you  must  report  gross wages that you earned  during any week for which you are 
claiming UC bene�ts. Computer crossmatching is used to detect the illegal receipt of UC payments resulting from 
unreported work and earnings, as well as unreported pensions. 
REMEMBER: Whenever you have questions or any problem regarding your UC claim, contact your UC Service 
Center. Do not take outside advice. Outside advice may be incorrect and could adversely affect your eligibility 
to receive UC bene�ts. 
A person who knowingly makes a false statement or knowingly withholds information to obtain UC bene�ts commits 
a criminal offense under section 801 of the UC Law, 43 P.S. §871, and may be subject to a �ne, imprisonment, 
restitution and loss of future bene�ts.
