{Name}
{Address}
{Phone #}

{Date}

Dear {claims official}:

I disagree with the {date} decision denying me unemployment benefits. Consider this my letter of appeal. I am formally requesting a hearing as well as a copy of my file.

The decision letter stated that I {quit my job/was fired for misconduct/failed to meet earnings requirements/refused suitable work}.

This is not the case. In reality, {this happened}.

For your reference, here is the contact information of my former employer:

{Employer name}

{Address}

As the appeal process proceeds, I will continue to file claims and report my job hunt efforts in anticipation of benefits ultimately being awarded retroactively.

Sincerely,

{Sender Name}
