How to file for unemployment in Virginia
If you are totally or partially unemployed and wish to apply for benefits, call the VEC Customer Contact Center or complete an on-line application on the Internet. The Customer Contact Center telephone number is 1-866-832-2363 (Available 8:15am to 4:30pm, Monday - Friday. Closed state holidays.) The Internet address is www.vec.virginia.gov. The addresses and telephone numbers for VEC Workforce Centers can be found in the phone book, or at the VEC website.
You will be asked to supply the name, address and telephone number of your last employer (and, in some cases, previous employers), your dates of employment, and the reason for separation.
You will be asked to select your electronic payment method for receipt of your benefits. You can select either direct deposit or a debit card. For direct deposit you will need your bank account and routing numbers. After you file your application for benefits, the VEC will decide whether you meet three separate requirements: 1) Monetary eligibility; 2) Separation qualification; and 3) Weekly eligibility.
