how much does unemployment ins. pay... (unemployment benefits, taxes, earnings)

[njguy23]

Standard is 10% deduction. You can though make an adjustment on this and put whatever percentage you want taken out. I might go half way and only have 5% taken out and just deal with the tax man next year.

Someone told me though(not sure how true this is) that Obama may pass a low to no longer TAX UNEMPLOYMENT considering the circumstances it shouldnt be taxed.

We will see

That all comes in the mail or you get it from the UE office.

I am coming from Virginia and although I have never been though a lay off, the max there is $425 no matter how much money you made before losing your job.

NY is $405 per week, I was laid off last year and moved to NC after I got laid off. I now have a job...but if i were to lose my job, you're saying I couldn't get unemployment through NC???? How long do you need to work in NC before being able to qualify for unemployment?

If you want an estimate of how much unemployment you could receive from NC you just need to go to the website and put in your information. It will tell you.

It's not about how much I'll receive its a question of how long do you need to be working at your job (first job in NC) before being able to be eligible for unemployment. Anyone know this?
