Why would you use the quarter of Apr - Jun of last year? Wouldn't you have made more Jul - Sept of '20? At least we worked a little in September.

I would think Jul-Sept 2020, Oct-Dec 2020, Jan-Mar 2021 and Apr-Jun 2021 would be the best four of your last 5 quarters as of this August.

Those were the dates they gave me when I put in august as my claim date

See...
1st Q- 4/1/20-6/30/20
2nd Q- 7/1/20-9/30/20
3rd Q 10/1/20-12/30/20
4th Q- 1/1/21-3/31/21
5th alternate Q- 4/1/21-6/30/21

I only got like 4 checks from 4/1/20-6/30/20 last check was may and then after that was September. So not getting paid all of may and June hurt me

OK ... they do not automatically check to see if using your alternate period will give you a higher benefit ... you have to request it.

I believe you will have to wait until after they give you your monetary determination in the mail. It usually comes with this form on which your can request a recalculation based on the alternate period. If not, here it is ...

Yeah after I put the numbers in and calculate it it lets you know the base rate and the alternate rate
