Yes, but besides the Oct, 2018 to Mar, 2019 wages, you'll be using April 1, 2018 to July, 2018 wages because those wages wouldn't have been consumed for a standard base period claim filed in July, 2018.
Got it. Thank you! That won't be a problem.
Also, just thought of this. I'm a freelance tv producer, both these claims are from the same company. They brought me back on after my contract ended for the Oct 2018 to Mar 2019 work - that shouldn't pose as a problem for EDD? Two claims, same company?

To fully understand. The April 1st 2018 to July, 2018 are the "LAG" quarter?
For you and the story that you told, that's what it is, and it's lag quarterS for most people. Even you have quarterS it's just that you weren't lucky and filed in July so you most likely crossed over the dividing line, and have a week up to a month into the July to Sept quarter.
This is why I prefer people use exact dates. A day and a dollar can make a big difference in UI calculations.
The lag are the unused quarters. Some people might have more or less depending on if they filed at the beginning or end of a quarter or if they had a standard vs alternate base period.

Thank you for clarifying. You really helped me in the past, so I'm trying to get ahead of any possible issues if work doesn't pop up - instead of waiting until the last minute and freaking.
So here are dates:
1. 9/11/17 to 7/27/18 - full time with Company A.
2. 7/29/18 - Filed for UI:
APR,MAY,JUN - $0.00
JULY,AUG,SEP - $3,300
OCT,NOV,DEC - $19,800 (EDD used this as my highest quarter earnings)
JAN,FEB,MAR - $18,810
Received max benefits for 26 weeks.
3. 10/29/18 - Started work with Company A again. Went off of UI.
4. 3/22/19 - Work ended with Company A again. Reopened 7/29/18 claim.
5. 7/27/19 - Claim ends and I will have exhausted all benefits (exhausted benefits around 7/7/19).
6. On my new claim that I will file a little before 7/27/19 - my earnings for OCT,NOV,DEC (2018) and JAN,FEB,MAR (2019) quarters will be similar to my previous quarters.
Does this change anything or does it look like I'm good to go? Thank you!

This tells me that EDD used a standard base period, and what I said before was correct

You're forgetting to use wages April, 1, 2018 to July 27, 2018 plus any final paycheck you received after your separation.

Not really. It looks like you'll still might get max benefit, it's just that you're going to consume more quarters of wages getting there.
Thank you for getting back to me. Really appreciate it.
