NRS 612.378 Maximum amount of extended benefit payable during year. [Effective on the date that federal sharing is no longer authorized pursuant to section 2005(a) of Public Law No. 111-5, or on January 1, 2010, whichever is later.]

NRS 612.378 Maximum amount of extended benefit payable during year. [Effective until the date that federal sharing is no longer authorized pursuant to section 2005(a) of Public Law No. 111-5, or until January 1, 2010, whichever is later.]

1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the total extended benefit amount payable to any eligible person for the person's applicable benefit year is the lesser of the following amounts:

(a) Fifty percent of the basic benefits which were payable to him or her in the benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.

(b) Thirteen times the person's average weekly benefit amount which was payable to him or her under this chapter for a week of total unemployment in the applicable benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.

2. In weeks beginning in a high unemployment period on or after February 1, 2009, and ending on or before December 12, 2009, or the week ending 3 weeks before the last week for which federal sharing is authorized by section 2005(a) of Public Law No. 111-5, whichever is later, the total extended benefit amount payable to any eligible person for the person's applicable benefit year is the lesser of the following amounts:

(a) Eighty percent of the basic benefits which were payable to him or her in the benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.

(b) Twenty times the person's average weekly benefit amount which was payable to him or her under this chapter for a week of total unemployment in the applicable benefit year. If the amount computed is not a multiple of $1, it must be computed to the next lower multiple of $1.

3. If the benefit year of any person ends within an extended benefit period, the remaining balance of extended benefits that the person would, but for this subsection, be entitled to receive in that period, with respect to weeks of unemployment beginning after the end of the benefit year, must be reduced by the product of the number of weeks for which the person received any amounts as trade readjustment allowances pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 2291 within that benefit year, multiplied by the weekly benefit amount of extended benefits, but the balance must not be reduced below zero.

4. As used in this section, "high unemployment period" means any period during which the average rate of total seasonally adjusted unemployment in Nevada, as determined by the Secretary of Labor, for the period consisting of the most recent 3 months for which data for all states are published before the close of such week:

(a) Equaled or exceeded 8 percent; and

(b) Equaled or exceeded 110 percent of the average rate for the corresponding 3-month period ending in either of the 2 preceding calendar years.
