The Unemployment Compensation for Ex-servicemembers program, or UCX, provides benefits for eligible ex-military personnel and former members of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration. The program is administered by the states as agents of the federal government.
Veterans who were on active duty may be entitled to benefits based on that service if they were separated under honorable conditions. The law of the state (under which the claim is filed) determines benefit amounts, number of weeks benefits can be paid and other eligibility conditions.
