Iowa SF466 disqualifies unemployment benefits for those separated from short-term employment with a fixed end date.

Iowa SF466 amends the unemployment benefits code to disqualify individuals from receiving benefits if they were separated from short-term employment with a fixed end date of 180 days or less. The bill specifies that such employment must have a written contract detailing the end date, and the department must find that the individual acknowledged ineligibility for benefits upon conclusion. Employment under this provision is not considered taxable wages, and employers can seek refunds for contributions. The bill applies to employment beginning after its effective date.
