in PA for unemployement the weekly max is 520 before taxes, is that paid every 2 weeks so I get 1040$?

Question

Was told in PA I qualify for the max

Answer 1

Yes, PA pays unemployment bi-weekly. You can file online and claim your weeks online. Here is the link: File biweekly claims on the Internet at www.state.pa.us PA Keyword: unemployment

Answer 2

You get a check weekly. If you qualify for the max, then you'd get the max - most people don't get that much. You typically get about half of what you were making, plus a little extra if you have dependents, up to the max.
