Anyone can file a claim for unemployment benefits with the Board. The Board must accept it right away. The Board must then quickly decide whether to approve or deny it.

Whenever anyone properly files a claim with the Board for unemployment compensation under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (45 U.S.C. 351 and following), the Board must accept that claim without delay. The Board must then take the appropriate administrative steps to approve or deny the claim as soon as it reasonably can.
