Calculation for new claim (file, work, UI, state)

[Lostmyjob1]

State New York. Does anyone know how it works for determining if need to file new claim once Benefit year end hits for those who worked in between. Meaning if was called back to work for shirt amount of time and then laid off again.
I read would have had to earn 10x weekly benefit rate. I've read some say its 10x the weekly UI rate and then I've read its whatever weekly rate was when actually employed times 10...so Im extremely confused.
Also would it be based off all of year 2020 including prior to March. If March is when originally applied for UI? Or is it only time frame after March?

It's 10x the WBR on the first year claim. The 10X WBR needs to be met during your first benefit year (meaning from your March 2020 claim filed date to date you filed the claim in March 2021).

Standard base period is the first four of the last five completed calendar quarters preceding the filing of the claim. NY's alternative base period is the last 4 completed quarters.

If a new claim is filed in March 2021, the standard base period for wages is 10/1/19 - 9/30/20. The ABP is 1/1/20 - 12/31/20.

NY DOL Twitter has explains what a person needs to be do when benefit year expires (depending on their situation)

Thank you so then it is the UI weekly benefit rate that is multiplied by 10. So if say person is receiving 300 UI weekly then it would be 3000? The ABP did you mean 10/1/20 til 12/31/20? So if did not work during that quarter then just wouldnt technically have an ABP?

Yes, you're correct on the $3000. NO, i meant the exact dates I listed for the standard base period and for the Alternate base period. If you don't meet the new wage requirements under the standard base period they will look to the ABP. Don't forget the 10X rule is for a successive year claim. In addition to the 10XWBR, you still need to meet the normal wage requirements for a new claim.

This leaves me more confused so it's not just based on the 10x rule? What qualifies as normal wage requirements?

go to NY DOL website where it will explain 2021 wage requirements. I'm a NJ person but that information is easily accessible. NY uses higher quarters in it's calculations for wage requirements.

you need to meet the normal wage requirements for a new claim AND you need to meet the 10xWBR rule (which is met DURING THE FIRST BENEFIT YEAR) because it is a successive year claim. so while you met the 10xWBR rule for the successive year claim you also need to meet wage requirements for a new claim.
