New Montana Unemployment Rules During COVID-19
As many people apply for unemployment in Montana, there have been more flexible rules passed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Details and links are right here:
On March 14, 2020, Governor Steve Bullock extended the emergency in the State of Montana with regards the COVID-19 pandemic in Executive Order 3-2020.
(It is CRUCIAL that you spend time reading the entire new rules document, as the COVID-19 pandemic is a rapidly evolving situation and rules may continue to change. As of March 2020, the following was compiled directly from the State of Montana.)
If you have an existing claim, you do not need to file a new one. You will, however, need a MontanaWorks.gov account to access your claim.
The unemployment site has been experiencing high volume and may be quite slow at times. Consider applying off peak hours if you encounter delays.
