Its based on the wages earned during the base period of your claim. In florida, the base period is the first four of the last 5 completed calendar quarters. You have to have made a certain amount to be elgible. In florida, the maximum amount payable is 25% of the wages in the base period and cant exceed $7150. Your state is probably different, but i'm sure its a similar methodology.

I just applied and I will receive a total of $1100 @ $103 a week. That is not even 11 weeks at 25% of my income. Florida has become the worst state for employees and the best for corporate industries. So who you gonna get to work for you Mr Big Shot!

It's a percentage of your wages, subject to a state minimum and maximum. The percentage is usually around 60%.

It's generally based on what you were making at your job, usually somewhere around half. Some states give additional if you have dependents.

the highest amount you can get a week is about 270.00. What they do is give you 70 percent of your previous pay or the max 270.00 a week.
