It depends on the state. Federal guidelines stipulates that the sentence is not to exceed six years. The only jurisdictions that federal guidelines apply though are in some federal jurisdictions, ships, or aircraft. In New York it can be up to 15 years, but in California it's a max of 4 years.

For a juvenile it is usually around 36 to 136 months.

Firstly manslaughter is involuntary anyway, it's murder without meaning to murder. Jail time can depend on the type of murder, and jail time is usually the same for a murder conviction. Sometimes life sentences (25 years or more).
