  2. The first week

    File for unemployment benefits

    Benefits usually start from the week you file, so file soon.

    Where you file depends on where you workedWherever you workedFind your state's unemployment officeUSA.gov: “In most cases, you should file for unemployment in the state where you worked instead of in the state where you live.” Source: USA.gov, Unemployment benefits · checked September 28, 2026

  5. Close it

Questions

What people ask about Uber.

Is Uber giving severance?

No public source states Uber's severance terms for this round, so this page does not guess at them. Your own agreement is the only one that applies to you.

Did Uber file a WARN notice?

The public record shows a filing. California WARN filing: 43 | 2026-09-02. Source: LaborCurrent (state WARN listings) · matched to the source automatically October 9, 2026

I worked remotely for Uber. Where do I file for unemployment?

USA.gov: “In most cases, you should file for unemployment in the state where you worked instead of in the state where you live. If you worked outside the state where you currently live or worked remotely, contact your home state’s unemployment office to get help with filing a claim in a different state.” Source: USA.gov, Unemployment benefits · checked September 28, 2026

Find your state's unemployment office (CareerOneStop, sponsored by the US Department of Labor). Offboard never sits between you and the agency.

Is Offboard part of Uber or the government?

No. Offboard is independent of Uber and is not affiliated with it. Offboard is independent, not a government agency, and claiming your benefits is always free.

Offboard helps people organize their transition and reach official sources. Government agencies and program providers make eligibility, benefit, and approval decisions. Offboard does not replace qualified legal, tax, financial, healthcare, or benefits guidance. We never promise funding. We show you the exact path to find out.
