Not quite following you here, but it seems to me that if you followed a job to the USA, and no longer have said job, why stay?

Unless you have a visa that allows you to work and is not tied to the job you lost (H1-Bs are held by the EMPLOYER, not the employee), you will not be able to claim any form of unemployment insurance or other aid. Without your own work visa or some other visa you will not be able to remain legally. Unemployment insurance is administered by the individual states, but requires that you be immediately (and legally) available to work. Technically, if you have an H1-B, you are supposed to leave the country immediately upon the conclusion of the job.
