Does Ogden have its own rule?
No. Utah Code § 35A-4-401; Utah DWS applies across Utah, so a claim from Ogden 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
Utah Code § 35A-4-401; Utah DWS — Utah Department of Workforce Services — unemployment insurance. Utah's formula is your highest quarter ÷ 26 minus $5, capped at $806 (the DWS benefit-calculation sheet). Duration is 10–26 weeks: 27% of your total base-period wages divided by your weekly amount.
