Who it is for
People claiming unemployment in Connecticut who need to keep a weekly work search record for Connecticut Department of Labor (CTDOL), and family members helping them stay organized.
Not the right fit if
You claim unemployment in a state other than Connecticut, or you need help with a denied claim or an appeal: this organizes the weekly work search record and doesn't advise on eligibility.
Why it is different
- Built only from our Connecticut work search data file, checked November 2026 against 1 official page: CTDOL: Work search.
- 4 items the official pages didn't state are printed as "Not confirmed — check" with the agency's page, never guessed.
- The Excel summary flags any week with fewer than 3 logged activities, recalculating with zero formula errors.
What is inside
- Connecticut weekly work search log (Excel). A log with general columns (Date, Activity, Employer or organization, Address, website or email, How you made contact, Result), since the official pages we checked didn't list required fields, a weekly summary that counts your activities against Connecticut's 3 per week and a documents checklist.
- Start here: Connecticut filing and work search steps. The 7 facts Connecticut Department of Labor (CTDOL)'s pages confirm, each with its source and check date, and 4 marked "Not confirmed — check": what to record for each activity, how long to keep records, job bank registration, how the week is counted. The weekly requirement, in the agency's words: At least 3 work search activities every week: at least 1 direct employer contact plus 2 other activities. How to report: Report your work search activities online with your weekly certification (Weekly Filing at filectui.com). Activities Connecticut counts: A direct employer contact: communicating directly with an employer to find a full-time job (required at least once a week); other activities from CTDOL's chart of acceptable work search activities. Who may not have to search, per the agency: CTDOL may approve limiting your search to part-time work for a documented medical condition.
- Documents to gather. A checklist of the papers a claim usually asks for (IDs, employer names and dates, pay records, separation papers), with space for anything Connecticut's application adds.
- Printable weekly work search log. A paper version of the log, one week per page, for claimants who prefer to write it down.
