Unemployment Insurance

The Texas Workforce Commission handles all unemployment insurance claims by telephone using Tele-Serv. Tele-Serv is an automated telephone response system that makes your claim filing faster and easier. Tele-Serv allows you to request payments using a touch-tone phone by calling a local or toll-free phone number.

For more information on how to file for unemployment insurance, please visit http://www.twc.state.tx.us/ui/bnfts/claimantinfo.html   or call 1-800-939-6631.
