I have been employed at the same job for 1 1/2 years. I am moving out of state. I am wondering, when I quit my job, will I be able to get unemployment until I am able to find employment in my new state???
(I live in lower Ohio and am moving to middle Michigan..about 350 miles)

You will need to file the claim with the state of Ohio since that is where the wages were earned. Most states now will make you wait 6 - 8 weeks penalty before benefits will start getting paid if you leave a job without having another one. Look at the web site for your state or call them and ask if there is a penalty or if they deny benefits all together before you leave. Just to cover you bases and so you will know if you will get money or not.
I did this moving from Texas to California because spouse had a job transfer. Texas penalized me for the first 8 weeks since I left a job without having another one. California does the same thing.

If you quit, you are not eligible to collect unemployment. That's for someone who get laid off, or fired other than for misconduct.
Under some circumstances where a person is deemed to have quit for just cause, it is possible to collect benefits. The uc people determine what is just cause, and it's not just because you decided to move.

No. Moving is a voluntary decision and unemployment insurance doesn't have to foot the bill for your move. Nice try!

I don't think so, but you'll have to check with the state of Michigan for a definite answer. They should have a website you can look through for the answer.
