Section 480-4-4-.01 - Allegation Of Fraud

(1) The general procedures to be followed where an allegation of fraud has been made are:

(a) Upon receipt of an allegation of claimant or employer fraud, the Agency should ensure that there is sufficient information to proceed. The alleging party shall be advised that the Agency will make a full investigation of the allegation and that the party will be advised of the findings, if such investigation could affect the employer account of the alleging party or affect a claim for benefits of the alleging party.

(b) If the findings revealed through the Agency's investigation indicate that a disqualification would have resulted for the period benefits were paid, an informal fact-finding interview shall be scheduled to allow the party making the allegation and the claimant an opportunity to give testimony. The Agency will determine if separate fact-finding interviews are necessary for the claimant and party making the allegations and any other party with pertinent information.
