[[category: tips]]

If you made aliyah less than a year ago but more than six months ago, you can apply for unemployment benefits at the Misrad Haklita.

Otherwise, you need to:

# Go to your local "misrad hata`asuka" (there's one here in M"A in the basement of the mall) with the letter from your employer.
# Afterwards, go to the Bituach Leumi (there's one here in M"A, close to the Paz station, but it's only open Wednesdays) and file for benefits.

I don't know for sure yet, but I have been told that you need:
# Letter from your employer stating you've been "let go"
# Copies of your last 12-18 pay-stubs ("telushim")
# If you have a degree, an Israeli certified copy of the degree

 # Go to your local "[https://www.taasuka.gov.il/Taasuka misrad hata`asuka]" (there's one here in M"A in the basement of the mall, next to the Chabad) with the letter from your employer (stating you are no longer employed).  They will take your information and "sign you up".  You will need to re-appear at that office once a week until you have found a job.  It is '''critical''' that you sign up as soon as possible, because your unemployment benefits begin from the time you sign up, ''not'' from the time you became unemployed!
-# Afterwards, go to the [http://www.btl.gov.il/Pages/default.aspx Bituach Leumi] (there's a branch here in M"A, close to the Paz station, but it's only open Wednesdays) and file for benefits.  Bring copies of your unemployement letter, as well as copies of your paystubs for the past 18 months.  If you can't produce those, you will need a form from your employer ("'ishur mehama`asik `al tekufat ha`asaka ve`al vasachar {{hebs|אישור מהמעסיק על תקופת העסקה ועל השכר}}) detailing your salary over the past X months, so don't bother going until you have that form or the paystubs.
