(1) The department will presume that you are disqualified from or ineligible for benefits if you provide information indicating you are potentially disqualified from or ineligible for benefits, or fail to provide necessary information and do not respond to a request for specific information. The department will deny benefits based on this presumption.
(2) This denial is for an indefinite period of time and will continue until either:
(a) You provide the requested information;
(b) You qualify and are eligible for a new, separate unemployment claim and the information requested under subsection (1) of this section is not relevant for your new claim; or
(c) The request for information was made pursuant to a quality control review under 20 C.F.R. § 602.11 and your response is no longer needed for the quality control review.
(3) Once you provide the requested information, the department may issue a redetermination under RCW
50.20.160. The department will issue a new decision allowing benefits if you provide enough information to establish your qualification and eligibility for benefits.
