UInteract is Missouri's online unemployment system where you can file your initial claim, certify weekly, check payment status, and upload documents. If you're having trouble accessing UInteract — locked account, verification errors, or system errors during certification — calling DOLIR directly is the fastest way to resolve it.
You have 30 calendar days from the mailing date of the decision to file an appeal.
