Missouri Unemployment Insurance for Military Spouses Who Leave a Job to Relocate

Missouri Department of Labor, Division of Employment Security
Partial, short-term wage replacement after a military relocation

You can claim unemployment insurance if you quit your job to relocate because of your service member's military orders. Quitting for that reason counts as good cause, so it does not disqualify you the way most voluntary quits do.

Check eligibility

How to apply

File a claim through the UInteract online unemployment system and state that you left your job to relocate under your service member's military orders. Contact a regional claims center if you need help: Jefferson City 573-751-9040, Kansas City 816-889-3101, St. Louis 314-340-4950, Springfield 417-895-6851, or 800-320-2519 outside a local calling area.

What you'll need

Your service member's military orders showing the relocation, your marriage certificate, your Social Security number, employment history for the last 18 months, and your bank routing and account number.

Eligibility

  • You are the spouse of a service member
  • You quit your job to relocate because of your service member's military orders
  • You earned enough during your base period to qualify
