NRS612.295. Reciprocal arrangements with state and federal agencies.

  The Administrator is authorized to enter into reciprocal arrangements with the appropriate and duly authorized agencies of other states, or the Federal Government, or both, whereby:

      1.  Services performed by a person for a single employing unit for which services are customarily performed by the person in more than one state, under circumstances not specifically provided for in NRS 612.065 to 612.145, inclusive, shall be deemed to be service performed entirely within any one of the states in which any part of the person’s service is performed, or in which the person has his or her residence, or in which the employing unit maintains a place of business, provided there is in effect, as to such services, an election by an employing unit with the acquiescence of the person, approved by the agency charged with the administration of that state’s unemployment compensation law, pursuant to which services performed by the person for that employing unit are deemed to be performed entirely within that state.

      2.  Potential rights to benefits accumulated under the unemployment compensation laws of one or more states or under one or more such laws of the Federal Government, or both, may constitute the basis for the payment of benefits through a single appropriate agency under terms which the Administrator finds will be fair and reasonable as to all affected interests and will not result in any substantial loss to the Unemployment Compensation Fund.

      3.  Wages or services, upon the basis of which a person may become entitled to benefits under an Unemployment Compensation Law of another state or of the Federal Government, shall be deemed to be wages for the purpose of determining his or her rights to benefits under this chapter, and wages on the basis of which a person may become entitled to benefits under this chapter shall be deemed to be wages for services on the basis of which unemployment compensation is payable under such law of another state or of the Federal Government, but no such arrangement may be entered into unless it contains provisions for reimbursements to the Unemployment Compensation Fund for such of the benefits paid under this chapter upon the basis of such wages or services, and provisions for reimbursements from the Unemployment Compensation Fund for such of the compensation paid under such other law upon the basis of wages, as the Administrator finds will be fair and reasonable as to all affected interests.

      4.  The Administrator shall participate in such arrangements for the payment of compensation on the basis of combining a person’s wages and employment covered under this chapter with the person’s wages and employment covered under the unemployment compensation laws of other states as may be approved by the Secretary of Labor in consultation with the state unemployment compensation agencies as reasonably calculated to assure the prompt and full payment of compensation in such situations and which include provisions for applying the base period of this or any other single state law to a claim involving the combining of a person’s wages and employment covered under two or more state Unemployment Compensation Laws, and avoiding the duplicate use of wages and employment by reason of such combining.

      5.  Contributions due under this chapter with respect to wages shall for the purposes of NRS 612.618 to 612.655, inclusive, be deemed to have been paid to the Unemployment Compensation Fund as of the date payment was made as contributions therefor under another state or federal unemployment compensation law, but no such arrangement may be entered into unless it contains provisions for such reimbursement to the Unemployment Compensation Fund of such contributions as the Administrator finds will be fair and reasonable as to all affected interests.
