You can claim temporary income if you lose your job through no fault of your own. It replaces part of your lost wages while you look for work and is not based on financial need. How much you can get depends on the work you did and the wages you earned in the 18 months before you file. Employers pay the whole cost of the program.
File your initial claim online through the Colorado UI claim portal after your last day worked. For help, call 303-318-9000 or 800-388-5515.
