Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
EXHAUSTEE.  A.  "Exhaustee" means an individual who, with
respect to any week of unemployment in his eligibility period:
(1)  has received, prior to such week, all the regular benefits
payable to him according to the monetary determination for his
current benefit year that includes such week under this act, or of
any other state law; or
(2)  has received, prior to such week, all the regular benefits
available to him in his current benefit year that includes such week
under this act or of any other state law after a cancellation of
some or all of his wage credits or the partial or total reduction of
his right to regular compensation; or
(3)  his benefit year having expired prior to such week, has
insufficient wages or employment, or both, on the basis of which he
could establish in any state a new benefit year that would include
such week, or having established a new benefit year that includes
such week, he is precluded from receiving regular benefits by reason
of the provisions of Part 1 of Article 2 or the provision of any
other state law that meets the requirements of Section 3304(a)(7) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1954; and
(4)  has no right to unemployment benefits or allowances, as the
case may be, under the following federal laws: The Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act, the Trade Expansion Act, and the
Automotive Products Trade Act; and
(5)  has not received and is not seeking for such week
unemployment benefits under the law of Canada, but if he is seeking
such benefits and the appropriate agency finally determines that he
is not entitled to benefits under such law, he is an exhaustee.
B.  For purposes of paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection A, an
individual shall be deemed to have received in his current benefit
year all of the regular benefits payable to him according to the
monetary determination or available to him, as the case may be, even
though:
(1) as a result of a pending appeal with respect to wages or
employment or both that were not included in the original monetary
determination with respect to such benefit year, he may subsequently
be determined to be entitled to more regular benefits; or
(2)  having established a benefit year, no regular benefits are
payable to him during such year because his wage credits were
cancelled or his right to regular compensation was totally reduced
as the result of the application of a disqualification.
