When you file for Texas unemployment benefits, you need to know what is on the Texas unemployment application. Many people call the unemployment hotline or visit the unemployment office and they are not fully prepared. Once you know what is on the actual Texas Unemployment Application, the unemployment claim process will be painless.
Things you need when you submit a Texas unemployment application:
1. Your last employer’s name and address.
2. Start and end dates (month, day and year) of your last employer that you worked for.
3. Total of hours you have worked and your pay rate (if this was a work week. Sunday has to be included).
4. Information regarding your normal wage.
