Anyone know if unemployment effects credit history in any way?

Anyone?

No, not directly.

However, without a steady income, any debts that you may have had in the past may be hard to pay off, thus resulting in late payments - ultimately affecting your credit score.

Also, receiving unemployment benefits will not appear on your credit history.
