Returns: one row per US jurisdiction (50 states, DC, PR, VI — 53 rows) with the minimum and maximum weekly unemployment-insurance benefit and the benefit weeks payable, as printed in the DOL 'Significant Provisions of State UI Laws' table, with edition, URL, SHA-256 and Last-Modified.
Input: { "states": ["IL", "CA"], "source": "bundled" } — both optional; empty {} returns all 53 rows from the bundled January 2026 edition; "source": "live" re-reads pdf_url.
Price: $0.05 per run (up to 53 rows — about $0.94 per 1,000 rows). Pay per event; no subscription.
One row per U.S. jurisdiction (50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands) with the
minimum and maximum weekly benefit amount and the benefit weeks payable, exactly as
printed in the U.S. Department of Labor table Significant Provisions of State Unemployment
Insurance Laws, with the edition date, the PDF's URL, its server Last-Modified stamp and
its SHA-256 on every row.
Nothing here decides anyone's eligibility or benefit. The amount a person actually receives is set by the state unemployment-insurance agency from that person's wage history; these are the statutory floors and ceilings the agency publishes, useful for comparisons and budgeting only.
Data source, cadence and status
| Publisher | U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Unemployment Insurance |
| Index of editions | https://oui.doleta.gov/unemploy/statelaws.asp ("Significant Provisions of State UI Laws") |
| Edition bundled | Effective January 2026 — https://oui.doleta.gov/unemploy/content/sigpros/2020-2029/January2026.pdf, fetched 2026-09-02, server Last-Modified Fri, 28 Aug 2026 12:34:47 GMT, SHA-256 6e78c921551ab04398f82908d0fd0a238125269a6887f730d63ed2a454b438ec |
| Cadence | DOL issues the table twice a year (January and July editions). source: "live" re-reads a PDF on demand; the operator checks the index monthly and re-bundles a new edition |
| Copyright | A work of the United States Government — not subject to copyright in the U.S. (17 U.S.C. §105). Please cite DOL |
| Parse rule | Dollar figures and the weeks column are copied verbatim (footnote superscripts stripped). Where the table prints two figures in one cell (e.g. Illinois "$51 / $77", Colorado "$767 / $844"), both are kept in print order in min_weekly_benefit / max_weekly_benefit and as numbers in *_values; the Actor never chooses one. Validation: all 53 jurisdictions must parse with a dollar figure or the run fails loudly |
Input
| Field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
states | array of 2-letter codes | Optional; empty = all 53 rows |
source | bundled (default) or live | bundled uses the shipped January 2026 parse and makes no request. live downloads pdf_url, records Last-Modified and SHA-256, parses it with the January 2026 column geometry and fails loudly if fewer than 53 jurisdictions parse |
pdf_url | string | Live mode only; must be under https://oui.doleta.gov/ |
edition | string | Live mode only; written to table_date |
contact_email | string | Sent in the From: header in live mode |
