Partial Unemployment Benefits Calculations

“Partial unemployment” refers to situations whereby a person continues to remain employed in a part-time

capacity, but has experienced a reduction in weekly hours, and by extension, earnings. In most states, this is defined

as working less than full-time (generally 32-40 hours per week), accepting all available hours, and earning less than

his/her Weekly Benefit Amount (WBA). In those cases, the individual may be eligible to collect partial

unemployment benefits. The formula for determining monetary eligibility can be complex and will vary from state

to state. Below is a guide to help you better understand how each state calculates this amount as well as a link for

each should you wish to learn more.

Partial Benefits Calculation

Alabama

A claimant can earn up to 1/3 of his/her weekly benefit amount and still receive a full weekly

benefit amount. All earnings over the 1/3 WBA is deducted dollar for dollar until it reaches the

claimant’s weekly benefit amount. At that point, the claimant would not be entitled to benefits.

Alaska

If the total gross weekly wage is equal to or greater than one and one-third times the weekly

benefit amount plus $50, the claimant is not unemployed, regardless of what the hours of work

or hourly wage might be.

Arizona

In addition to receiving UI benefits, claimants can now earn up to $160.49/week and still receive

their full weekly benefits. If claimants earn more than $160.49 in a week, their benefit amount

will be reduced.

Arkansas

You may be eligible for reduced benefits for a week in which you work fewer than 40 hours and

earn less than 140% of your Weekly Benefit Amount. You must report all earnings and hours of

work whether you are working full time or part time. Deductions will be made from your Weekly

Benefit Amount when your earnings are more than 40% of the Weekly Benefit Amount

California

If your weekly earnings are $100 or less, the first $25 do not apply. Any amount over $25 is

subtracted from your weekly benefit amount and you are paid the difference, if any. For

example:

Your weekly benefit amount is $145.

You worked and earned $26 during the certification week.

Since your weekly earnings are less than $100, the first $25 does not apply.

Colorado

You may be eligible to collect partial benefits if you are working fewer than 32 hours per week.

However, you must continue to look for work and meet your eligibility requirements. When you

work, we can pay part of your weekly benefits, but you must have earned less than the weekly

benefit amount. The law states that you can earn up to 50 percent of your weekly benefit amount

and still be paid your full benefit payment. After that, we must reduce your benefit payment by

one dollar for each dollar you earn.

https://cdle.colorado.gov/eligibility-and-work-search-requirements

Connecticut

How are partial Unemployment Compensation Benefits computed? Your payment for partial

benefits will be figured by taking two-thirds of your gross earnings for the week claimed and

deducting that amount from your Weekly Benefit Rate.

For example, if your weekly benefit rate for unemployment is $200, and you work 5 hours at

$12/hour - then 2/3 of your gross earnings ($60) or $40 would be deducted from $200, leaving

you a check amount of $160. You also still must be able, available and looking for full time

work.

https://www.ctdol.state.ct.us/ui-online/partials.htm

Delaware

You are allowed to earn 50% of your weekly benefit amount without any deduction from your

weekly benefit payment. Anything over 50% is deducted dollar for dollar. For example: If your

weekly benefit amount is $100, you are allowed to earn $50 gross (wages before deductions)

within the benefit week with no deduction of your UI benefit, anything over $50 is deducted

dollar for dollar.

https://laborfiles.delaware.gov/main/dui/handbook/UI%20Claimant%20Handbook.pdf

To determine the weekly benefit amount you will receive if you are working part-time, use the

following formula: • Add $50 to your weekly benefit amount; • Subtract sixty-six (66) percent of

your gross weekly wages. The remainder, rounded down, is your reduced weekly benefit

amount.

Florida

If the claimant’s gross earnings during a week are less than the Weekly Benefit Amount (WBA),

the Earnings Disregard Amount (8 x Federal minimum wage) is subtracted from the earnings

and the remainder is deducted from the WBA to determine the amount payable to the claimant.

Example 1: Claimant WBA is $100; claimant gross earnings are $100. No payment is due to the

claimant.

Example 2: Claimant WBA is $100; claimant gross earnings are $98. Earnings disregard of $58 is

deducted from $98, leaving $40 to be deducted from the claimant’s WBA. A payment of $60

will be issued to the claimant.

Report gross earnings (the amount earned before taxes and other deductions) when claiming

benefits (even if it’s only $1). This includes self-employment, part-time work, or any vacation or

holiday pay received (if you have a definite date of recall within 6 weeks of the last day worked).

Earnings over $150 per week for weeks ending on or after June 27, 2021 are deducted from

your weekly payment dollar for dollar.

Hawaii

You can earn up to $150 a week and still receive your full unemployment check. If you are still

employed and working and earning less than your weekly benefit amount, you may qualify for

the difference between your earnings over $150 and your weekly benefit amount.

For example, if you earn $200 during a week and your weekly benefit amount is $300, you can

still receive $250. However, if your earnings during the week equal or exceed your weekly benefit

amount, you will not be entitled to benefits. If you are still employed by an employer in the

above situation, the following rules apply:

You need to have your employer complete a "Weekly Report of Low Earnings" to verify your

earnings for the week. These forms are available from your local claims office.

You must not refuse any suitable available work during the week in question.

Idaho

You can earn up to half of your weekly benefit amount in a week without reducing your UI

benefits. Once you earn more than half, your benefits will be reduced by a dollar for every dollar

over half your weekly benefit amount.

Your benefits will be reduced by your earnings until you make 1.5 times your benefit amount. If

you make this much or work full time in a week, you won’t be eligible for UI that week.

Examples: Your weekly benefit amount is $100, and you earn $85 for the week. Because you

earned $35 over one-half of your weekly benefit, you will get a payment for $65 ($100-$35). The

next week, you earn $150. You won’t receive a payment for the week

Your earnings for the week must be less than your weekly benefit amount (not including your

dependent allowance). Any wages earned that are greater than 50% of your weekly benefit

amount will be deducted from your unemployment insurance benefits for that week. If you

earned less than 50% of your weekly benefit amount, you can receive your full amount of

unemployment insurance benefits for that week. If the partial benefit amount does not come

to an even dollar, it is raised to the next higher dollar, as long as it does not exceed your weekly

benefit amount.

"NYS DOL’s new partial unemployment system uses an “hours-based” approach. Under the new

approach, claimants can claim partial unemployment for a week if they work 30 hours or fewer

and earn $504 or less in gross pay excluding earnings from self-employment. With this change,

claimants’ benefits will not be reduced for each day they engage in part-time work and will be

reduced in increments based on total hours of work for the week.

Partial benefits are available as follows:

0 – 10 hours of work (equivalent to 0 days worked): 100% of weekly benefit rate

11 – 16 hours of work (equivalent to 1 day worked): 75% of weekly benefit rate

17 – 21 hours of work (equivalent to 2 days worked): 50% of weekly benefit rate

22 – 30 hours of work (equivalent to 3 days worked): 25% of weekly benefit rate

31+ hours of work (equivalent to 4 days worked): 0% of weekly benefit rate

When you are working while drawing Unemployment Benefits, state law allows you to earn 25

percent of your weekly benefit amount (WBA) and still receive your full WBA.

When you earn more than 25 percent of your WBA, TWC reduces your weekly benefits on a

dollar-for-dollar basis. For example, if your WBA is $200. One week you earn $50, which is 25

percent of your WBA. You will receive your full WBA for that week, and your income will be $250

($50 in earnings plus $200 in benefits). The next week you earn $100. This is $50 more than 25

percent of your WBA, so TWC will reduce your benefits for the week by $50. Your income will

remain $250 ($100 in earnings plus $150 in benefits). The week after that you earn $300, which

is more than your WBA plus 25 percent. You will not receive any benefits for that week. Your

income will be $300 ($300 in earnings plus $0 in benefits).

Any other claimant who reports wages and/or other types of income on a weekly claim for a

benefit payment may be entitled to full, reduced or no benefits for that week, depending on the

total amount of wages earned and other payments to be treated as wages for the week. The

amount of benefits payable for a week of partial unemployment is computed by applying the

following "partial wage formula":

1. Subtract $30 from the gross wages.

2. Multiply the remainder by .67 (67%).

3. Subtract the product (including cents) from the claimant’s weekly benefit rate.

4. Round the remainder down to the nearest whole dollar. This is the amount of partial

UI benefits payable for the week.

NOTE: The smallest benefit payment that we will pay is $5, so if the calculation results in an

amount that is less than $5, no payment is made.
