Long-Term Assistance To help you recover from the disaster, you should apply for unemployment insurance and access the City's and the State's job counseling and job placement services. 1. Unemployment Insurance. Individuals unable to report to work due to the disaster should apply for unemployment assistance by calling the New York State Department for Labor Telephone Claims Center at (888) 209 8124, open Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., or by visiting a local Labor Employment Office, or one of the two "one- stop assistance centers" listed below. The one-week waiting period for unemployment insurance claims filed as a result of the WTC Attacks has been waived. This waiver applies to individuals who work or live in the New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, and Richmond Counties.

2. Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA). Even if you did not qualify for unemployment insurance before September 11th, you may qualify now. The Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program provides unemployment benefits and re-employment assistance to individuals who are not normally eligible for regular unemployment benefits. If you live in the Counties of New York, the Bronx, Kings, Queens, and Richmond you may be eligible for Disaster Unemployment Insurance. You must first apply for regular unemployment benefits, and if you are denied, you may qualify for Disaster Unemployment Benefits. The current filing deadline is November 16,2001. DUA pays benefits to the spouse of a deceased victim who was the major breadwinner of that household.

3. Job Search Assistance. New York City and New York State are offering job placement assistance to those affected by the WTC Attacks. Centers have been established to provide job search and employment services: access to phone lines, fax machine, Internet access, resume preparation, and connections to available jobs through job banks. The centers are at the following locations:
