Can I collect unemployment if I quit my job and move from Oregon to Arizona?

I been very sick because of the wet and cold weather in Oregon. I has too much rain. I'm now taking depression medication and sleeping pills every day for my seasonal depression. So I'm thinking to quit my job to move to AZ. In this case, can I collect unemployment in AZ. Thanks.Can I collect unemployment if I quit my job and move from Oregon to Arizona?
If you can prove with doctors' documented backup you are leaving for a better climate for medical reasons it may be possible to collect unemployment from Oregon. That's because it would be considered medically necessary and thus not voluntary. Call Oregon authorities and ask. They would be the ones to pay.

See below under health conditions.
No you cannot collect unemployment if you quit your job and move from Oregon to Arizona. Quitting is a personal choice to stop working and earning a paycheck. You receive unemployment from the state you worked in (not the state you move to) only if you are laid off from your job through no fault of your own. If you quit and move to Arizona you will be making a choice to live off your savings until you can get a new job. Your employer in Oregon is not going to lie to the unemployment office and say that you were laid off so that you can collect benefits. You will be unemployed by personal choice if you quit your job, and you will not be eligible for any unemployment compensation. I do not recommend quitting unless you have enough savings to live off for the next 2-3 years.Can I collect unemployment if I quit my job and move from Oregon to Arizona?
You are not eligible just because you chose to quit your job. You get unemployment if you are laid off at no fault of your own.



Also unemployment is based on the location of your employer not where you want to live.
No. Unemployment eligibility is based on three things, one if which is leaving your job "through no fault of your own". And choosing to relocate, for any reason, is legally considered your fault.Can I collect unemployment if I quit my job and move from Oregon to Arizona?
There are very few circumstances where you can quit a job and collect unemployment. I don't think you'd qualify.
