[TEXAS] Not a resident and job was remote?

[Texas] Question

Hi all, I was recently fired from my job and am looking into how to apply for unemployment. However I am not sure if im over complicating it, or if I am not eligible.

Here’s my situation in bullets

-I am still a AZ resident as I go back and forth from AZ and TX often and don’t plan on staying in texas for very long

-I primarily live in TX, and would file unemployment in TX

-my former employer was not a texas company. They were based in Boston and I worked remotely

Based on this information, would I be eligible for unemployment? Or do I need to be a Texas resident?
