§ 22-4-14-4 — Waiting period

As a condition precedent to the payment of
benefits to an individual with respect to any week such individual shall
be required to serve a waiting period of one (1) week in which he has
been totally, partially or part-totally unemployed and with respect to
which he has received no benefits, but during which he was eligible for
benefits in all other respects and was not otherwise ineligible for
benefits under any provisions of this article. Such waiting period shall
be a week in the individual's benefit period and during such week such
individual shall be physically and mentally able to work and available
for work. No individual in a benefit period may file for waiting period
or benefit period rights with respect to any subsequent period.
Provided, however, That no waiting period shall be required as a
prerequisite for drawing extended benefits.
