New Hampshire reads your whole annual wage, and pays everyone 26 weeks
New Hampshire computes the weekly benefit amount as a band of your annual wages — 1% to 1.1% — rather than from a peak quarter, and then pays a uniform 26 weeks to everyone who qualifies.
- Uniform 26 weeks. The maximum benefit amount column reads N/A: there is no wage-share cap and no weeks formula scaling to your record. The wage test does all the filtering.
- 1% to 1.1% of annual wages. Because the state reads the full year, a strong single quarter does not lift the figure the way it would under a high-quarter divisor.
- The weekly range is $32 to $427. The $32 floor is near the bottom of the national table.
- Qualifying takes $2,800 with at least $1,400 in each of two quarters. Requiring the same amount in both quarters rather than a total is a deliberate exclusion of single-quarter work records.
- Part-time work: 30% of the weekly amount is ignored.
