There's still bad employees working in those units too. Had a claimant that lived in TX and worked in a small TX satellite office of a LA employer. The TWC employees really pressured the claimant, "just go file in LA. I can see the wages there. You can have your claim right now." Had the claimant not fought the good fight that required an appeal she'd have been out $200/wk because of the lower LA benefit amount.
I could a post link to a real life story, but it would probably get deleted. Was it mistake, maybe, but it was in the claimant's favor and I never heard another word about an overpayment issue.
While the situations may be rare, they've involved earnings of federal employees that had multiple state addresses available to them, people that had wages from different states in the base period, and employees of companies that didn't necessarily report their taxes to the right state.
On the flip side, I could post another link to a story of how applying in the wrong state turned into a mess especially when it came to an EUC issue and the claimant had no traction as each state pointed the finger at the other. It was a costly lesson.
With the threads I've seen from claimants on UI in FL, there is NO way I'd let a FL UI worker touch my claim unless it was the only choice available to me.
