(1) Is there a penalty if I don't look for work or fail to report for the JSR interview as directed? Benefits will be denied if you fail to:

(a) Meet the minimum job search requirements;

(b) Provide information about your job search activities and, once you have been paid five weeks of benefits, provide a copy of your job search log upon request;

(c) Comply with any job search directive issued by the department; or

(d) Report to a scheduled job search review interview.

(2) How long will my benefits be denied? Benefits will be denied for the specific week or week(s) in which you fail to act as described in subsection (1).

(3) What is the penalty if I don't attend a JSR that has been scheduled to review all weeks claimed? If you fail to appear for a review of your job search logs for all weeks claimed, fail to produce your job search logs for those weeks, or your logs fail to establish that you have met the minimum job search requirements, such failure will be treated as nondisclosure under RCW 50.20.160(3) and your benefits may be denied for any weeks at issue.
