053-20 Wyo. Code R. § 20-1
Any individual claiming benefits for unemployment under the Wyoming Employment Security Law shall proceed as follows:
(a) An individual may file an initial claim for unemployment benefits by telephone to the division's claim center or by Internet using the division's approved web site claim application. The effective date of an initial claim shall be the Sunday of the calendar week in which the individual first completed an Internet claim, or completed a telephone claim through the claim center for the purpose of initiating an initial unemployment insurance claim, unless the claimant requests that the claim be effective the following Sunday or unless the claimant has excessive earnings during that week and is separated from employment. The effective date of the claim may be changed by the division for good cause.
(b) An individual may file an initial claim in person or by mail. The effective date of an initial claim shall be the Sunday of the calendar week in which the individual reported in person to an employment center or another location approved by the division, to file the claim, or mail his request for benefit claim forms to the division's claim center; provided that the individual mails the completed forms not later than the seventh day following the date on which the requested forms were mailed to him. If the individual fails to mail the claim as provided above, the individual's claim for benefits shall be effective as of the Sunday of the calendar week in which the completed forms are mailed. The effective date of the claim may be changed by the division for good cause.
(c) In order to meet the requirement of W.S. 27-3-401(a), a claimant shall provide all information required to establish or process a claim, including the claimant's social security number and information to establish the claimant's identity. If the claimant fails, without good cause, to provide information required under this section, the claimant shall not be eligible for benefits until the week in which the requested information is provided.
