Unemployment Insurance Operations Center Closed Monday
Unemployment Insurance Tax & Claims Online System Available
All New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions’ offices, including the Unemployment Insurance (UI) Operations Center, will be closed Monday, October 9, 2017 in observance of Columbus Day. The department urges claimants to plan accordingly.
Individuals can apply for Unemployment Insurance (UI), certify for their weekly claim, and check their claim status by logging in at www.jobs.state.nm.us, Sunday through Friday from 4 a.m. to 9 p.m. The Operations Center will resume normal hours on Tuesday, October 10, and individuals can contact a Customer Service Agent in the NMDWS UI Operations Center at 1-877-664-6984 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
NMDWS would like to remind all eligible UI claimants that Monday, October 9 is a federal holiday. Some banking institutions and the US Postal Service will be closed in observance of Columbus Day. This may result in a delay of banking transactions for UI debit card and direct deposit benefit payment recipients for those certifying on Sunday. This will also result in a delay of mail delivery for a small portion of UI claimants who receive checks.
