Section 815.22 - Special Claim Situations(a) For adequate cause shown, the Agency may permit retroactive or backdated work registrations and may permit the filing of retroactive or backdated work registrations and may permit the filing of retroactive or backdated claims in order to prevent hardship or injustice. The work registrations and claims shall have the same effect as though prepared and filed on the earlier date. In the event a request for backdating a claim is approved prior to the filing of the claim, a claimant must file the backdated claim within 60 days of the date the backdating was authorized in order for the claim to be valid.(b) On a finding by the executive director, or the executive director's designee, that a foreign conflict creates an emergency situation which prevents the filing of claims in accordance with all of the provisions of § 815.20 of this chapter (relating to Claim for Benefits) and that the emergency is likely to continue for an extended period, the executive director may permit the filing and payment of claims not meeting all of the requirements of § 815.20 of this chapter (relating to Claim for Benefits). However, those requirements may be relaxed only to the extent that the executive director finds necessary to prevent hardship or injustice that would otherwise be caused by the emergency.40 Tex.
