The base period is set by law and will not change during the life of your unemployment claim. Your base period earnings determine the number of weeks ranging from 12 to 26 that you may receive benefits. If you qualify monetarily, your claim remains in effect for one year. This period is called a benefit year.
In almost every state, the base period is one year: The earlier four of the five complete calendar quarters before the applicant filed for unemployment. For example, if someone files a claim for unemployment benefits in August of 2011, the base period would be April 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011.n almost every state, the base period is one year: The earlier four of the five complete calendar quarters before the applicant filed for unemployment.
