(3) Conditional payments under subsection (1) (a) of this section:

(a) Begin:

(b) End when the department makes a determination of eligibility for benefits; and

(c) May be paid for the entire length of time necessary for the department to make an eligibility determination.

(4) If you have not claimed benefits (had a break in claim) for four weeks or longer, the department will not conditionally pay you under subsection (1) (a) of this section.
