Section 12:17-16.2 - Benefit rights of interstate claimants

(a) If a claimant files a claim against any state, which determines that the claimant has available benefit credits in such state, then a claim shall be filed only against such state as long as benefit credits are available in that state. Thereafter, the claimant may file claims against any other state in which there are available credits.

(b) For the purpose of this subchapter, benefit credits shall be deemed to be unavailable whenever benefits have been exhausted, terminated, or postponed for an indefinite period or for the entire period in which benefits would otherwise be payable, or whenever benefits are affected by the application of a restriction that prohibits the payment of benefits to an individual employed in a seasonal industry during the off season.

Amended by R.2003 d.276, effective 7/7/2003.
See: 35 New Jersey Register 1527(a), 35 New Jersey Register 2874(b).
