What is the maximum amount of unemployment benefits I can receive in Maryland?

Asked a year ago
The maximum amount of unemployment benefits an individual can receive in Maryland is determined by their past wages. Currently, eligible claimants can receive a weekly benefit amount ranging from $50 to $430. However, the duration for which benefits can be received may vary depending on economic conditions and the state's unemployment rate. Maryland provides a maximum of 26 weeks of unemployment benefits during stable economic times. Furthermore, during periods of high unemployment, additional federal programs may extend this duration. These programs may offer extended benefits, emergency benefits, or a combination of both. It is important to note that eligibility requirements must be met, such as actively seeking work and reporting work search activities, in order to continue receiving benefits.
