Utah Admin. Code 994-106-101

Current through Bulletin No. 2024-21, November 1, 2024
Section R994-106-101 - General Definition
(1) An unemployed individual who has covered employment and wages in more than one state has the right to combine such wages and employment in the base period of one state if the combination will provide benefits for which he could not otherwise qualify or will increase the benefits for which he qualifies in a single state. He must file a combined wage claim if he is eligible to do so rather than claim extended benefits. If he wishes, he has the right to reject a combined-wage claim and file against a state in which he is separately eligible or to cancel the combined wage claim and file no claim.
(2) Section 35A-4-106 provides for the wages earned in other states to be used to qualify for unemployment insurance benefits. Many of the restrictions and guidelines contained in this Rule are required by federal regulations which govern the establishment and payment of unemployment benefits when a claimant uses wages earned outside the state or his residence at the time the claim is filed. If there is a conflict between this Rule and federal regulations, the federal regulations will be followed.
