I am moving to Nevada to get married...I already get unemployment in California- How do I continue to get unemployment now that I am going to be living in Reno, while I look for work there?

I have been receiving unemployment in California. My soon to be husband lives in Reno, Nevada..I am moving there in February 2010 as we will be getting married the end of February. How do I receive unemployment benefits while I look for work in Reno? Do I just change my address on my current California form? Or do I just register in Nevada, or both? I can't find information on either of the Unemployment development websites for either state...Thank you for your help!!!


Hi Aubie,

I believe you will have to do both. Change your address and register for work with Nevada.

I think this page will get anyone started out on the right foot who decides to move out of California while collecting benefits.


How to change your address or phone number with the EDD

Congratulations on your marriage and Good Luck in Reno Aubie :-)
