When will I receive my first payment? You should receive your first payment within 3 weeks if there are no issues on your claim for benefits. You are not paid benefits for the first week you claim after filing for benefits (the first voucher you submit) because this is your waiting period week.

You can determine your weekly benefit amount by dividing your total base period wages by 52. Then, multiply that number by 0.47. Your weekly benefit amount should be rounded down to the next whole dollar amount. Your WBA is based on your total wages earned in the base period.

For example, if you were fired for coming to work intoxicated, committing a crime, falsifying your job application, knowingly breaking workplace rules, or intentionally damaging the employer's property, you will not be eligible for benefits.

Can I get unemployment if I quit my job? Yes, if you quit your job for a good reason. You will have to show that you had a good reason to quit AND the reason had something to do with the job.

In Indiana, if you are denied unemployment benefits or disagree with the decision made by the Department of Workforce Development, you have the right to appeal a decision. You must file your appeal within ten days after the mailing date of the decision notice.

You must file a voucher WEEKLY through the online filing system (called Uplink). Submit your weekly voucher the week following your initial application and each week thereafter. Benefits are paid weekly. The week runs from Sunday, a.m. to Saturday, p.m. Eastern time.

What is Uplink? Uplink is the name of Indiana Department of Workforce Development's automated self service Unemployment Insurance system. Through the Uplink Claimant Self Service System, you now have access to enhanced services, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
