Utah Admin. Code 994-403-118e

Current through Bulletin 2024-23, December 1, 2024
Section R994-403-118e - Disqualification Periods if a Claimant Fails to Provide Information
(1) A claimant is not eligible for benefits if the Department does not have sufficient information to determine eligibility. Except as provided in subsection (6) of this section, a claimant who fails to provide necessary information without good cause is disqualified from the receipt of unemployment benefits until the information is received by the Department. Good cause is limited to circumstances where the claimant can show that the reasons for the delay in filing were due to circumstances beyond the claimant's control or were compelling and reasonable.
(2) If insufficient or incorrect information is provided when the initial claim is filed, the disqualification will begin with the effective date of the claim.
(3) If a potentially disqualifying issue is identified as part of the weekly certification process and the claimant fails to provide the information requested by the Department, the disqualification will begin with the Sunday of the week for which eligibility could not be determined.
(4) If insufficient or incorrect information is provided as part of a review of payments already made, the disqualification will begin with the week in which the response to the Department's request for information is due.
(5) The disqualification will continue through the Saturday prior to the week in which the claimant provides the information. The denial can be waived if the Department determines the claimant complied within 7 calendar days of the date the decision was issued.
