UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE - CLAIMANT'S APPEAL TO THE APPEAL BOARD

Statutory authority for the issue of timeliness of Claimant's Appeal to the Appeal Board is found in Labor Law Section 621:

Within twenty days after the mailing or personal delivery of notice of the decision of a referee on contested benefit claims, the claimant and the employer, provided he appeared at the hearing, may appeal to the appeal board by filing a notice of appeal in the local state employment office in accordance with such rules as the appeal board shall prescribe. Within the same period of time and in the same manner, the commissioner may also appeal to the appeal board, regardless of whether or not he appeared or was represented at the hearing before the referee.

Subd. 1 as amended by L. 1960, Ch. 787 effective April 25, 1960."
