§401 Payment of compensation; eligibility; duration; maximum aggregate amount payable; duplication of benefits; application of railroad unemployment insurance provisions

Summary

Employees covered by the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act who used up their railroad unemployment benefits after June 30, 1960 and before April 1, 1962 can get extra unemployment pay under railroad rules. They can get benefits for up to 65 days. The total extra amount cannot be more than 50% of the unemployment benefits that were payable to them in the benefit year when they last exhausted railroad benefits before their first claim under this law. These extra days must fall in registration periods that start on or after the 15th day after March 24, 1961 and before April 1, 1962, and must be days that would not already be paid under the railroad law. If a person is entitled to benefits for a day before April 1, 1962, they may get benefits for registration periods that begin before July 1, 1962. Payments under this rule plus any railroad benefits already paid in the same benefit year cannot together exceed 195 times the person’s daily benefit rate for that year. A person who filed and established a first claim under the Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1961 cannot later claim under this rule, and someone who filed under this rule cannot later claim under that Act. Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act rules apply unless they conflict with these terms.
