A condition of your receiving unemployment is certification. Every two weeks, you are assigned a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday date on which you re-certify. This means that you tell the employment security office that you have been looking for work. Because most of your job searching will be by email, it is a good idea to save all emails related to your job searches. You may, at some point, need to furnish evidence of applications having been sent, but in the first five re-certifications, I did not encounter this demand.
Again, you MUST use Internet Explorer and then browse to http://ides.illinois.gov/individual/online-services.asp to fill in the form. This process is relatively painless and doesn't take too much time. Do it first thing on your bi-weekly certification day.
