Bill > SB854

This bill modifies the Unemployment Insurance Code by expanding the definition of "mail," "mailing," or "mailed" to include not just traditional postal mail, but also transmissions sent through other common mail carriers and electronic transmission methods. Specifically, the bill clarifies that when something is sent electronically, the "postmark date" will be considered the date the writing was sent. This update provides more flexibility in how communications can be sent and received under the Unemployment Insurance Code, recognizing the increasingly digital nature of modern communication. By broadening the definition of mail, the bill ensures that documents related to unemployment insurance can be effectively transmitted through various means while maintaining a clear standard for determining the date of transmission.
