Due to high call volume, the Division of Unemployment Insurance has reduced the days to file or reopen a claim for benefits by the last digit of your Social Security Number (SSN). Below is the scheduled day to call depending on the last digit of your SSN:

Last digit of SSN is 0 - 3 call on Monday.
Last digit of SSN is 4 - 6 call on Tuesday.
Last digit of SSN is 7 - 9 call on Wednesday.

Note: There are no restrictions on Social Security Numbers on Thursdays or Fridays.

Your claim will be dated the Sunday of the week in which you call so make sure you call during the week you want your claim to begin. Our week runs Sunday to Saturday. Call volume is heaviest on Mondays, so for faster service, call later in the week.

There are no restrictions on the web. Claims may be filed 24 hours a day, seven days a week at https://www.njuifile.net. It's quick, easy and secure.
