You may be able to get Disaster Unemployment Assistance (US Department of Labor)
The Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) program provides temporary benefits to people who, due to a major disaster, lost or had their employment or self-employment interrupted.
Can I get help from the program?
To qualify for DUA you must meet both of the conditions below:
- Your job must have been lost or interrupted due to a presidentially declared disaster, and
- You must not be eligible for regular unemployment insurance benefits.
After a disaster, your state will publish information about DUA availability. As soon as possible, contact your state’s unemployment agency to file a claim for benefits. You can use the
CareerOneStop Unemployment Benefits Finder
to find the state agency you need.
Visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s
DUA page
to learn more.
