@Tminus6453 what state is that? The max you can get here is 350 a week. I was making 52k a year so not sure why im getting that little!

@MntoNc Oregon, it was max and i was only making 50k a year

@Tminus6453 its based on a base period or something. I was unemployed at a certain period and i think that had something to do with it

@MntoNc I think here you have to have been employed at least 500 consecutive hours to qualify
