UPDATE: PUA claimants who were not able to certify for eligible weeks prior to April 19 are now able to file for eligible weeks back to their last date of employment (but no earlier than February 2). Individuals must file weekly PUA certifications for each week for which they are claiming eligibility for benefits, including retroactive certifications back to their last date of employment. Individuals who have already received the initial phase of payment will not see the option to certify for the three weeks for which they have already been paid. File weekly certifications at https://pua.azdes.gov.

UPDATE: Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC), which provides an extension of unemployment benefits, will be available in Arizona June 6.

Due to scheduled maintenance, des.az.gov and web applications with the domain “azdes.gov” will be unavailable 10:00 p.m. Thursday, June 4 to 1:00 a.m. Friday, June 5. Thank you for your understanding.

File for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA)

PUA is a new Federal program that provides financial assistance to those who are unable to work due to COVID-19 and do not qualify for regular unemployment benefits. Individuals receiving unemployment do not qualify to also receive PUA.

Filing for Unemployment Insurance

Many workers are being affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. Unemployment Insurance may be available for individuals whose employment has been disrupted. Federal and state laws around eligibility and requirements are also changing in response to COVID-19. DES is working to update its requirements to implement these changes. Please note the online application is available from 12 am Sunday to 6 pm on Friday and is unavailable due to required maintenance from 6 pm on Friday until 12 am on Sunday. Learn more.
