NJBallot Resident Resources

Use NJDOL's Contact Us page to choose help for your situation. It lists Reemployment Call Centers at 201-601-4100 for North Jersey, 732-761-2020 for Central Jersey, and 856-507-2340 for South Jersey. The out-of-state line is 888-795-6672 and requires a phone with an out-of-state area code. The page also links an online information-request form and appointments for unemployment help at One-Stop Career Centers. Its online form usually sends an automated response; the reply address is not monitored. Open the contact page, select the appropriate route, and follow current instructions for your claim or account problem.

What to do next

Open NJDOL's Contact Us page, choose the relevant call center, online form, or unemployment appointment, and follow the listed instructions.
