Additional Information

You have applied for an Unemployment Insurance or a Disability Insurance claim and requested wages to be added to your claim award.

If you fail to respond to this form within 10 days, it may delay or prevent paying benefits on your claim. If you fail to sign this form, the form will be returned and this may delay or prevent paying benefits on your claim.

Please do not mail original documents. All documents submitted should be copies provided on 8 ½ x 11 inch paper and should include your full name and your complete social security number.

All wage information will be carefully reviewed and audited by a quarterly wage report. Any discrepancies between the information provided by you and the information provided by your employer may affect the weekly benefit amount of the claim. An overpayment and penalty will be assessed if it is discovered that a false statement or intentional misreporting of wages has occurred.

Base Period Quarters

The base period consists of four calendar quarters of three months each. When a base period begins and which calendar quarters are used depends on whether the claim is for Unemployment Insurance or for Disability Insurance and on what date the claim begins.

Disability Insurance Claims

Disability Insurance claims have a base period which covers a 12-month period of time and is divided into four consecutive quarters of three months each. The wages an individual was paid approximately 5 to 18 months before the Disability Insurance claim begins are included in the base period (and they must have been subject to the State Disability Insurance (SDI) tax).

Unemployment Insurance Claims

Unemployment Insurance claims have a standard base period and the option of an alternate base period only when using the standard base period results in a claim that is not monetarily valid.

The standard base period is the FIRST FOUR of the last five completed calendar quarters prior to the beginning date of the claim.

The alternate base period is the LAST FOUR completed calendar quarters prior to the beginning date of the claim.
