The UCFE program provides unemployment compensation for Federal employees who lost their employment through no fault of their own. UCFE is administered by the states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the United States Virgin Islands who act as agents of the Federal government. In general, the unemployment insurance (UI) law of the state in which the former Federal employee had his/her last official duty station in Federal civilian service will be used to determine eligibility for UCFE benefits. Accordingly, the same terms and conditions that apply to individuals eligible for regular state UI apply to UCFE claimants.
