I’m working a lot more this year and thought I would get based on this. Did I do something wrong??

I don't know if it state specific but in California it is an average of the previous completed four quarters - so if you file in October, November or December the would exclude the previous quarter (July, August and September) and use July through June of the previous year.

The state goes by the taxes you filed. If you haven't filed 2019 taxes yet, they will go by 2018 taxes that you submitted.

I don't think that is correct because your unemployment is calculated on quarters for which you might not have paid taxes.

Payroll taxes are reported by your employer at the end of each quarter which is why there is the one quarter lag for the purpose of calculating unemployment since your employer wouldn't have necessarily reported payroll for the last quarter.

My last employer didn't do the paperwork so they went to a previous one.
