Unemployment Insurance — Weekly Cash Benefits If You Lost Your Job
If you lost your job through no fault of your own (layoff, company closure, hours cut below threshold), you may be entitled to weekly unemployment insurance payments. Average weekly benefit is $450 nationally, paid for up to 26 weeks in most states — totaling up to $11,700. Many people who qualify never file because they assume they are not eligible. Apply immediately after job loss through your state unemployment agency — waiting costs you weeks of benefits.
