Yes, as long as you qualified for it in Pennsylvania, before the move. There is an interstate agreement between all states that allow a person moving to not lose his benefits if he followed the rules pertaining to same. The mere act of moving, however, does not make one eligible for the benefits.

If you had already qualified for and were receiving the unemployment benefits, yes. If your move was the reason to claim, then it's questionable and depends on Pennsylvania's law regarding eligibility to receive the benefits.

I'm sure every state is different but about 1 year ago we had a girl quit due to a production warning we gave and she filed successfully for unemployment through Oklahoma. So the State of North Carolina was paying unemployment to a girl in Oklahoma who actually quit her job? If you're in the position it can't hurt to file, the worst thing to happen is your claim is denied.

Another answer:As long as you qualified under the Pennsylvania law for unemployment and complied with their rules on moving to another state, then you can collect.

If you move to Florida can you collect unemployment if you haven't gotten it already?

No, and yes. You can't collect from Florida because it is not a "liable state" (which pays the benefit, from where you had worked, if at all). However, it can act as your "agent state" and assist you filing for any benefits you are entitled to in another state if you had worked in a base year and hadn't filed for unemployment in that state yet.

No. You can only collect from the state that your employer paid his unemployment taxes to, the "liable" state.
