Each state has its own laws and formulations for determining minimum and maximum amounts.
This cannot be answered for many reasons, foremost would be what state you worked in, as the determiner is the state.
The amount of the benefit depends on what state you're working in, the base period, the amount of wages earned in that base period, whether there are or will be extensions, etc.

∙ 14y agoHow much you can collect depends on what state you are in. California for example ( see the Related Link below) uses the individual's specific 12 month base period. The amount ranges from $40 to a maximum of $450 depending on the quarterly earnings. For the maximum, a person would have had to earn $11,674 in a calendar quarter. You then receive the benefits from 12-26 weeks, unless extended by the state or Congress.
