    Default New Jersey Unemployment and Temp Assignment

    My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: New Jersey
    I currently collect unemployment in the state of New Jersey and have been for about 6 months.

    Next week I'll be on a temp assignment for approx 3 months. The work will be in the state of NJ but the agency that is placing me on the assignment is in New York City.

    At the end of the assignment I want to go back on unemployment in the state of New Jersey since that is the place of my original claim. I'm not really sure what's going to happen once I try to go on unemployment again on the original claim. I will be applying for full-time work while I'm doing the temp work.

    You will have to re-open your claim. Normally you can do that with just a phone call. The fact that the agency sending you on this assignment is in New York is irrelevant; the work will be done in New Jersey and the agency should report your wages for UI purposes to New Jersey.

    No problem. I've done exactly that (although in PA, not NJ) a few times in the last two years.
