Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
The bureau shall enter into reciprocal arrangements with appropriate and duly authorized 
agencies of other states or of the federal government or both, by which:
1. Services performed by an individual for a single employing unit, which services 
customarily are performed in more than one state, must be deemed to be services 
performed entirely within any one of the states:
a. In which any part of such individual's services is performed;
b. In which such individual has such individual's residence; or
c. In which the employing unit maintains a place of business if there is in effect as to 
such services, an election, approved by the agency charged with the 
administration of such state's unemployment compensation law, pursuant to 
which all the services performed by such individual for such employing unit, are 
deemed to be entirely within such state;
2. Potential rights to benefits accumulated under the unemployment compensation laws 
of one or more states or under one or more such laws of the federal government, or 
both, may constitute the basis for the payment of benefits through a single appropriate 
agency under terms which the bureau finds will be fair and reasonable as to all 
affected interests and will not result in any substantial loss to the fund;
3. Wages or services, upon the basis of which an individual may become entitled to 
benefits under an unemployment compensation law of another state or of the federal 
government, must be deemed to be wages for insured work for the purpose of 
determining the individual's rights to benefits under the North Dakota unemployment 
compensation law, and wages for insured work, on the basis of which an individual 
may become entitled to benefits under the North Dakota unemployment compensation 
law, must be deemed to be wages or services on the basis of which unemployment 
compensation under such law of another state or of the federal government is payable. 
No such arrangement may be entered into unless it contains provisions for 
reimbursements to the fund for such of the benefits paid under the North Dakota 
unemployment compensation law upon the basis of such wages or services, and 
provisions for reimbursements from the fund for such of the compensation paid under 
such other law upon the basis of wages for insured work, as the bureau finds will be 
fair and reasonable as to all affected interests; and
4. Contributions due under the North Dakota unemployment compensation law with 
respect to wages for insured work, for the purposes of sections 52 -04-11 through 
52-04-14, must be deemed to have been paid to the fund as of the date payment was 
made as contributions therefor under another state or federal unemployment 
compensation law, but no such arrangement may be entered into unless it contains 
provisions for such reimbursements to the fund of such contributions and the actual 
earnings thereon as the bureau finds will be fair and reasonable as to all affected 
interests.
