[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for People claiming unemployment in Idaho who need to keep a weekly work search record for Idaho Department of Labor, and family members helping them stay organized. Not the right fit if You claim unemployment in a state other than Idaho, 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 Idaho work search data file, checked November 2026 against 4 official pages: Idaho Department of Labor: What are my UI work search requirements? (Feb. 2026); Idaho Department of Labor: Work search log (I-77-21, August 2026); Idaho Department of Labor: Filing weekly certifications (Claimant Portal, Add Work Search Action). - Every item in the checklist is confirmed on an official page and linked to it. - The Excel summary flags any week with fewer than 5 logged activities, recalculating with zero formula errors. What is inside - **Idaho weekly work search log (Excel).** A log with the columns Idaho Department of Labor asks for (Employer or organization, Job title or type of work, Date, Address, website or email, Phone, Person contacted), a weekly summary that counts your activities against Idaho's 5 per week and a documents checklist. - **Start here: Idaho filing and work search steps.** The 10 facts Idaho Department of Labor's pages confirm, each with its source and check date. The weekly requirement, in the agency's words: At least 5 work search actions a week, for work-seeking claimants. How to report: Report your actions on your weekly certification through the Claimant Portal. Activities Idaho counts: submitting an application, résumé, cover letter or letter of interest; completing interviews; attending job fairs or workshops. Records: The log is for your own records; don't submit it. Idaho recommends saving proof of each action, such as employer correspondence, screenshots showing dates, interview invitations and workshop attendance records. It doesn't give a period. Job bank: IdahoWorks (registration required). Who may not have to search, per the agency: employer- or union-attached claimants have different requirements; the department decides that status. - **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 Idaho's application adds. - **Printable weekly work search log.** A paper version of the log with Idaho's columns, one week per page, for claimants who prefer to write it down.
