However, state aid can vary significantly from person to person. It falls in a range between a minimum and maximum value. Most states pay minimums below $100 a week.

Hawaii, for example, pays $5 a week on the low end. It’s not much higher in other states like Louisiana ($10), Connecticut ($15), North Carolina ($15), Nevada ($16), Oklahoma ($16) and Delaware ($20), according to Labor Department data.

Arizona and Washington state have the highest minimums, just shy of $190 a week. The U.S. average is $61.

The federal unemployment supplement boosted these minimum payments by $600 a week.
