The Reemployment Assistance claims system in Florida is called CONNECT. Establishing an account at employers.connect.myflorida.com will allow all Florida employers to access their claims and surveys in a centralised location.
You can now submit a protest against an erroneous benefit charge and respond online to any and all claims-related queries. When it comes to appeals, employers have the option to submit physical files or electronic forms. It is the most efficient method of keeping track of your filings and will provide you results quickly. Am I of interest?
