Section R994-106-103 - Restrictions on Combined Wage Claims(1) Any unemployed individual who has had covered employment in two or more states may file a combined wage claim unless: (a) he has established a claim under any other state;(b) the benefit year has not ended;(c) and there are still unused benefit rights.(2) Unused Benefit Rights. A claimant will not be considered to have unused benefit rights on a prior claim if:
(a) all benefits have been exhausted, or(b) benefits have been denied by a seasonal restriction, or(c) benefits have been postponed for an indefinite period or for the remainder of the benefit year. A disqualification imposed because a claimant is not able to work or available for work is not considered a denial of a claimant's benefit rights.(3) Use of Wages in Paying State. If an individual files a combined wage claim, all wages and employment in all states during the base period of the paying state must be included. He may not select a paying state but must accept that state which is determined under Subsection 35A-4-106(1)(b) and R994-106-103.
(4) Base Period for a Combined Wage Claim. The base period for a combined wage claim means the "base period" as established in the paying state.
(5) Benefit Year for a Combined Wage Claim. The benefit year for a combined wage claim is the "benefit year" of the paying state.
