Unemployment Insurance Resources
The Maryland Department of Labor’s Division of Unemployment Insurance has launched a new unemployment insurance application called the BEACON One-Stop. This new application allows all Marylanders to file all types of claims entirely online, including regular benefits, CARES Act benefits, and individuals who were previously required to file by phone. To directly access the new BEACON One-Stop application, please visit beacon.labor.maryland.gov/claimant.
If you have questions about this new application, please read our BEACON One-Stop FAQs. For help with your username and password, please visit our BEACON One-Stop Username and Password Handbook. For additional information about logging into the application, please read our Login Quick Start Guide.
There are several tutorial videos available to help Marylanders:
· Account Activation and Login
· Filing Weekly Claim Certification
· Applying for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA)
· Applying for Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC)
· Viewing and Completing an Action Item
If you have technical questions, please email BEACON.support@maryland.gov. In your email, please make sure to include your full legal name, complete address, phone number, email address, the last four digits of your Social Security number, claimant ID number, and/or a brief description of the issue you are experiencing.
