Section 20-101-300-318.04 - Claims for Benefits
(A) Claims for benefits or waiting period shall be filed by interstate claimants on uniform interstate claim forms and in accordance with uniform procedures developed pursuant to the Interstate Benefit Payment Plan. Claims shall be filed in accordance with the reporting period used by the agent state. Any adjustments required to fit the reporting period used by the liable state shall be made by the liable state on the basis of consecutive claims filed.
(B) Claims shall be filed in accordance with agent state regulations for intrastate claims by established agency methods.
(1) With respect to claims for weeks of unemployment in which an individual was not working for his regular employer, the liable state shall, under circumstances which it considers good cause, accept a continued claim filed up to one (1) week, or one (1) reporting period, late. If a claimant files more than one (1) reporting period late, an initial claim must be used to begin a claim series and no continued claim for a past period shall be accepted.
(2) With respect to weeks of unemployment during which an individual is attached to his regular employer, the liable state shall accept any claim which is filed within the time limit applicable to such claims under the law of the agent state, provided the same is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Mississippi Employment Security Law.
