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 MDES says about filing:
"File as soon as you become unemployed, online at any time through MDES Online Unemployment Services (ReEmployMS), or by phone at 601-493-9427, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. You must register for online services first."
From the agency's own page, read October 14, 2026. File a claim on the agency's site.
