What's the Maximum Unemployment Benefit in Ohio?

If you're wondering, "What's the Maximum Unemployment Insurance Benefit in Ohio?"---The answer is, "It depends..."
  • If you have no dependents, and earned at least $774 per week ($40k per year), you may be able to get $387 per week in UI benefits.
  • If you have 1 or 2 dependents and made $940 per week ($49k per year), you may be eligible for $470 per week.
  • If you have 3 or more dependents and were paid at least $1,048 per week ($54k per year), you might get $524 per week.
What has been your experience with Ohio's unemployment office?  Do you think it's fair that people with kids get bigger benefit checks than those who don't have any children?
