Does Caldwell have its own rule?
No. Idaho Code § 72-1367; Idaho DOL applies across Idaho, so a claim from Caldwell is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is which workforce office you deal with in person and how busy it is — not the weekly amount or the number of weeks.
What the statute says
Idaho Code § 72-1367; Idaho DOL — Idaho Department of Labor — unemployment insurance. Idaho's weekly amount is your highest quarter ÷ 26, capped at $590 for 2026. Duration is 10–20 weeks depending on how evenly your wages were spread across the base period.
