MARYLAND UNEMPLOYMENT RESOURCES
The Maryland Department of Labor has stated that residents who are eligible for unemployment insurance will receive unemployment benefits starting from the day after they stopped working, even if they have not yet been able to file for benefits. Exactly when those benefits will begin depends upon people getting into the system on the Department of Labor's website at http://www.labor.maryland.gov/employment/unemployment.shtml or applying over the phone at 410-949-0022.
Please note: People who apply for unemployment will receive an additional $600 per week through July 31 as part of the federal CARES Act. This will be added automatically to your unemployment benefits; you do not have to do anything to receive this added amount.
Residents have until December 31, 2020 to retroactively apply for unemployment benefits. It is important that anyone who applies for unemployment indicate that they would like both the Federal and MD State taxes deducted from the amount of unemployment benefits they will receive to avoid being hit with a large tax bill afterwards.
