Hey all, if my official workplace is Massachusetts but I am WFH in a different state (no longer have a MA address), am I still eligible for unemployment benefits from MA? (Getting laid off next week)

Sorry I meant I’m about to be laid off next week

FFS. No, this is illegal

I made an edit to the post, bad wording on my part

Yes! You claim your benefits where you worked because that’s the state in which your paid taxes/your employer paid dues when you were working. So, you claim it in MA

They will require a physical address for the necessary documents and tax forms.

Not living in the state where you are trying to get benefits is a sure-fire way to trigger their anti-fraud processes.

This is NOT true. You can claim from anywhere within the United States. You cannot claim from outside your country

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
