Yeah, they divide your base period quarter with the highest wages by 25, but the WBA maxes out at $521, so those $3000+ monthly numbers you came up with are not valid.
I think they still are valid. This is including $300 per week stimulus COVID amount.
My base calculation is actually right.
$1758 monthly is the unemployment benefit, way below the 521 max / week. It actually would be higher for October and November, since those month have 31 days.
But you're right, max weekly is $521. I'm glad you caught that, someone is paying attention. 👍👍👍
So, new
max monthly IAH based unemployment numbers until the end of the year:
$2'307 + $1'328 = $ 3'635.00
Based on $521 per week, plus $300 per week stimulus amount.
The stimulus COVID relief IS in addition to unemployment benefits, isn't it?
