Effective July 1, 2009, significant changes have been made to NRS 612.445 and penalties will be imposed for the commission of fraud. Fraud is defined as making any false statement relating to a claim for benefits, deliberately withholding information to obtain benefits, failing to report all work and income during a week for which benefits is claimed, filing an unemployment claim while incarcerated or allowing another person to file a claim on your behalf while incarcerated and not disclosing the fact of being incarcerated, or using a name and/or Social Security Number other than your own to file a claim for benefits. If you are found to have committed fraud, you WILL be disqualified until all money is repaid, plus any penalties and interest. You may even be prosecuted for felony theft.

In Nevada, no deduction is made from workers' wages to finance the Unemployment Insurance (UI) program. It is paid entirely by employers who are liable for coverage under the Nevada Revised Statutes. Amounts deducted from workers' wages for Social Security do not help pay for the UI program.
Claims become effective the week in which they are filed. Nevada 's claim week is from 12:01 Sunday to Saturday at midnight. If you complete your application and receive the confirmation number on the final page of the form prior to midnight Saturday Pacific Time, your claim will begin the prior Sunday. Example: You complete your application and receive a confirmation on Saturday at 11:45 pm Pacific Time. Your claim will be effective the prior Sunday. If you complete your application and receive a confirmation on Sunday at 1:10 am Pacific Time, your claim will begin on that Sunday.
Internet Claims cannot be backdated, if you wish to establish your claim for a prior week, you must file via the Telephone Claim System.

The Agency is waiting on further instructions from the Department of Labor that will allow us to start paying EUC and SEB claims. There will be a delay in payment. If you have potential eligibility you will be receiving a letter in the mail that will provide you with instructions on weekly claim filing. This letter will signal that your claim has been automatically reopened; the new funds have been added and that the agency is now ready for your weekly claims to be filed. Once the Division receives and implements the instructions from the Department of Labor, individuals filing for new EUC benefits will be able to file on line at www. expressclaim.org and individuals filing for SEB will be able to call the Telephone Claim Center to choose Option 5 to file their SEB claim. Updates will be provided as soon as they become available.
