This should be accomplished during the application process if the AG is currently being certified, providing the processing time frames can be met. Otherwise, within two working days of receipt of a report of loss of employment, send the AG a notice requesting necessary information to determine whether good cause exists. Give the AG a deadline of 13 days to provide the information.

The eligibility worker will help obtain verification of the Voluntary Quit if the information is difficult for the AG to obtain.

Acceptable sources of verification include, but are not limited to: • The previous employer • Employee associations • Union representatives • Grievance committees or organizations.

If the Voluntary Quit resulted from circumstances that, with good reason, cannot be verified such as: • Resignation from employment due to discrimination • Unreasonable demands by any employer • Because the employer cannot be located.

The AG will not be disqualified for Voluntary Quit. 2438.50.25 DISQUALIFICATION FOR VOLUNTARY QUIT (S)
