Unemployment Insurance was developed in the 1930s after the Great Depression to help unemployed workers while they look for more work and help stabilize the economy. Unemployment Insurance administration is funded by a federal payroll tax paid by employers.

The Montana unemployment offices in Billings and Helena are staffed with five claims processing teams. The best methods to file for unemployment are online or on the telephone.
