Section 646IAC5-2-13. Responsibilities of related entities

   (a) Where employing units are related because one (1) employing unit has created or acquired a separate employing unit with no existing experience account, the employing units are responsible for determining whether they are eligible for separate accounts before requesting a new account.

  (b) Where employing units with properly acquired experience accounts become related and ineligible for separate accounts through acquisition or merger, the entities are responsible for reporting the acquisition or merger to the department. The department shall combine the experience balance of the two (2) accounts once it receives the report.
