Unemployment Calculator
Estimate weekly unemployment benefits, after-tax payments, total support, and the income gap compared with your previous earnings.
Add your average weekly wage before unemployment.
Choose a replacement rate, benefit cap, duration, and withholding.
See weekly, monthly, total, and income-gap estimates instantly.
The calculator multiplies prior weekly wages by the selected replacement rate, then applies the minimum and maximum weekly benefit limits. Estimated withholding is deducted to calculate a possible after-tax payment.
Is this an official unemployment benefit calculator?
No. It is a general planning tool. Actual eligibility, wage formulas, benefit caps, waiting periods, and payment durations depend on your jurisdiction and claim history.
What is a replacement rate?
The replacement rate is the percentage of your previous wage used to estimate the preliminary weekly benefit before minimum and maximum rules are applied.
Are unemployment benefits taxable?
Tax treatment varies by country and sometimes by region. The withholding field is only an estimate for budgeting purposes.
Why might my real payment be different?
Your actual payment may be affected by base-period earnings, part-time income, dependents, severance, pensions, waiting weeks, deductions, and local benefit rules.
