[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I'm trying to convince my husband to file, but he is depressed and not able to handle financial maters right now.

I am trying to gather all the info I can to walk him through the process and hopefully have no problems.

Does this all sound correct?

He works in DC therefore he needs to file ONLINE here:

https://does.dcnetworks.org/initialclaims/Welcome.aspx

He really needs both an SF8 form AND an SF50 form and will need to fax them?  Is this correct?   If he doesn't have these where can he get them?  He usually keeps very good employment files so I think he should be able to find them.

[quote]Special Instructions for furloughed District and Federal Government workers: 
Important: Furloughed government workers, in addition to filing their initial claim for benefits online, must also provide a SF-50, SF-8 or other official proof of wages in order for their claim to be processed. Failure to provide these documents will prevent your claim from being successfully processed. 
During the shutdown you MUST provide these documents by either emailing a scanned copy to poe.does@dc.gov or faxing it to 202-724-7479.[/quote]

He does NOT need to certify that he has been terminated from work.   For reason separated from work the response should be:  "Laid off/lack of work" -- is that official somewhere?

To find his 3 digit employer agency code he can look here:
