I lost my job because of a disaster. May I receive unemployment compensation?
Maybe.
FEMA does not provide assistance for wages lost due to a disaster. But, Florida provides help through the State unemployment program.
For details on applying, see General Disaster Unemployment Assistance Information on FloridaJobs.org.
