In Florida, your weekly benefit amount is calculated by dividing your total earnings for the highest paid quarter of the base period by 26, up to a current maximum of $275 per week. You can receive benefits for anywhere between 12 to 23 weeks, depending on Florida's current unemployment rate.
There is no minimum amount of time or wages an employer has to meet in order to qualify under unemployment compensation. â you must have a total of 18 credit weeks within the entire base period â which means you were employed for at least 18 weeks in the base period and earned at least $116 in each of those weeks.
