The average state benefit is for 26 weeks (payable within a 52 week period). Federal extensions increase the time received, but it depends on the state and the unemployment rate of the state compared to the national average.
26 weeks per claim. One claim per year. If you ever had your weekly dollar amount reduced for any reason, you may collect longer than 26 weeks to make up the difference. See this Related Link for details for Connecticut, for example
Regular unemployment benefits: If you meet the eligibility requirements of the law, you will have some income while you are looking for a job, up to a maximum of 26 full weeks in a one-year period.
Extended Unemployment Insurance Benefits:
Chicago - Under a new federal law that took effect on November 21st, up to 20 weeks' worth of emergency unemployment compensation (EUC) benefits are now available for eligible individuals. Previously, individuals could only receive up to 13 weeks' worth of EUC benefits.
Eligible individuals who exhausted their rights to EUC benefits, based on the previous 13-week maximum, can receive up to seven more weeks' worth, for weeks beginning on or after November 23rd. IDES will notify those individuals of their certification days. The earliest possible certification day for those individuals will be December 8th.
Each state's regulations may be different, but generally, the base year (to determine part of your eligibility) is the previous 4 of the last 5 complete calendar quarters. The benefit period (when you receive your benefits) is generally good for a maximum 52 week, but your actual collection period is up to 26 weeks. If you are in a high unemployment state, there are extensions of 13 to 20 weeks, and if those are exhausted the new bill gives another 6 weeks.

This depends on the state you work in and the number of Federal extensions of benefits.
That depends on what state you live in. The laws vary by state. Also, some claimants can file for a Federal extension when their state benefits run out.
Check the unemployment website of the state you live in for further details.
Unemployment benefits change yearly, and even monthly. Consult with the local Social Security office about the benefits you are able to claim.
