Assistance with Unemployment Insurance Benefits
Initial Filing
All unemployment insurance claims are made in NEworks. Our resource room navigators and career planners can assist you in:
- Setting up an NEworks account;
- Filing your initial or weekly claim;
- Scanning documents into NEworks; and
- Assistance with making your resume online and active in NEworks.
Walkthroughs
Additionally, here is step-by-step instructions for filling for unemployment insurance benefits. There are walkthroughs in other languages available below.
The American Job Center partners with the Nebraska Department of Labor to aid with unemployment claims. We are not unemployment insurance benefits and therefore cannot speak on the status of your claim or eligibility.
Come into our Resource Room at either of our locations for in-person assistance. Walk-ins are welcome.
Status of your Claim
Additionally, the American Job Center has a phone directly linked to the Nebraska Claims Center. This phone is slightly faster than directly calling the Nebraska Claims Center at 402-458-2500, as it prioritizes calls from this line.
