Can I file for unemployment at these offices?
These are American Job Centers, a network funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and run locally. Whether you can file or fix a claim there depends on the state. Here is what DLIR says about filing:
"Apply online at the Hawaii UI claims website, huiclaims.hawaii.gov, available Monday to Friday 6:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and weekends and holidays 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. (Hawaii Standard Time). Your claim starts on the Sunday of the week you file."
From the agency's own page, read October 14, 2026. File a claim on the agency's site.
