Suddenly losing your job can be incredibly stressful. If you're a Missouri resident, you may qualify for unemployment benefits that can help offset the financial burden while you search for another job. If you lost your job through no fault of your own, you may receive as many as 20 weeks of benefits. You can file for unemployment in Missouri either online or over the phone. You also have the right to an appeal if the Missouri Department of Labor denies your application. [1] X Research source
