Resources for Federal Workers

If you are a federal employee who has been recently laid off you may be eligible for unemployment benefits. You should file your claim as soon as possible after your last day of work. An employer may not prohibit you from applying for benefits. However, the reason for your separation and other factors will help determine if you are eligible for benefits. Colorado Unemployment Benefit Claims take approximately four to six weeks to process.

Upcoming Virtual Town Halls

Colorado’s federal workers are encouraged to attend one of our upcoming virtual town halls. Our subject matter experts will review the unemployment insurance process, what former federal workers need to know before filing a claim and go over the various reemployment support available to all Colorado job seekers.

Space is limited, so join early. If we reach capacity before you are able to join Zoom, the webinar will be streamed live on YouTube. We'll answer questions from both our Zoom and YouTube audiences. A recording of each session will be sent to all who register.
