Nanny file for unemployment

[Anonymous]

is the process hard? what benefit can they get?

Yes, they can file and it is very easy. As her employer, you will receive a form for the unemployment office that requires you to verify she is not working for you anymore. My nanny was working part time (20 hours a week) before the pandemic. She is now making more than double what she was when she was working for me due to the federal unemployment benefits of $600 a week plus her state unemployment benefits (which are 100% of her wages). The federal benefits run out at the end of July. We will likely bring her back in August. It has been a win-win for both of us. She is making more money staying home and I do not have to pay for services I am not using.

Thanks for sharing! We will likely do the same. She lives in VA but we live (hence she works) in DC- so would she file in VA though because that is where she is unemployed?

Have you been paying unemployment taxes? To which state?

FYI: Your unemployment insurance rate may increase.

Wrong. It’s already been stated that unemployment won’t be charged to employers accounts right now.

Are you really this stupid? She files where she worked which is the District. If she moved to Alaska she can file for unemployment there and her claim would be against the District of Columbia. The ignorance of some of you is mind boggling.

Actually this is not that common a thing to know. People like you who likely live on unemployment annually know this. But those who do not regularly file may not.

She files in DC - you should have the information as her employer from when you pay quarterly. Look at the DOES page
