What Information Can You Provide on Arizona Unemployment Benefits?

Answer:
Eligibility for Arizona unemployment benefits is

based on an individual's eligible earnings in the base period prior to filing an unemployment claim. They must also be able to demonstrate sufficient wages from an eligible position during four of the last five calendar quarters preceding the quarter in which an unemployment claim is filed.

The reason an individual is no longer employed in his or her former position also impacts eligibility for Arizona unemployment benefits. Workers seeking unemployment compensation must be unemployed due to factors not of their own doing.

Additionally, individuals are eligible for Arizona unemployment benefits only if they are actively looking for full time employment, and are both able and eligible to go to work if a suitable position is offered.
