Starting June 30, the Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) will reopen to in-person appointments at 12 local offices, the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity announced Wednesday.
Michigan residents can schedule appointments beginning June 23. Each appointment is 15-minutes long and may be scheduled up to a week in advance. The offices are open for appointments Monday through Friday from 8:15 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Walk-ins will not be accepted.
The agency expects to see about 900 visitors a day.
“This additional option for customer service is another avenue to assist Michigan residents in accessing the financial lifeline they need while they are recovering from a job loss,” said Acting UIA Director Liza Estlund Olson.
