Can I still collect New York Unemployment if I move to another state?

Yes you can collect from another state! I moved to Florida last year and kept getting my NY benefits. Just make sure you update your address in the system and continue to certify weekly. You still have to follow NY rules about job searches tho.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone at unemployment to confirm this. Used claimyr.com - its this service that calls and waits on hold then connects you when someone picks up. Costs $20 but worth it to get a clear answer. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Make sure you keep detailed records of your job search activities. NY unemployment is pretty strict about that and they sometimes ask for proof even months later.

Listen up - heres everything you need to know about collecting NY unemployment from another state: 1. You CAN collect from anywhere in the US 2. Must update your address immediately 3. Keep certifying weekly like normal 4. Follow NY work search requirements (3 activities per week) 5. Keep your NY bank account until payments are coming normally 6. Document EVERYTHING If you need to speak with someone to confirm, use claimyr.com - they'll get you through to an agent fast. Source: Moved to Texas last year, still collecting no problem

quick tip: dont change ur address until the move is 100% complete. saw ppl get locked out of there accounts for updating too early
