Unemployment benefits in Lebanon
Unemployment insurance in Lebanon is a New Hampshire program, filed with the state agency rather than with Grafton County. The weekly amount and the number of weeks come from state law, and both are below.

Does Lebanon have its own rule?
No. RSA 282-A:25; NH Employment Security applies across New Hampshire, so a claim from Lebanon 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
RSA 282-A:25; NH Employment Security — New Hampshire Employment Security — unemployment compensation. New Hampshire pays from a wage schedule that tops out at $427 once annual base-period wages reach about $41,500; the maximum has not changed in over a decade. New Hampshire has no waiting week.
