• (b) should the claimant cease to meet a condition of entitlement to benefits at any time during the period of eligibility where failure to meet that condition has the effect of reducing or negating any benefit for any week in the period of eligibility, the claimant will notify the Commission of the condition as soon as possible.

(5) For the purposes of section 40 and 41 of the Act, a claimant who participates in Pilot Project No. 4 is, for the purpose of this section, deemed to have made a claim for benefit for every week of unemployment in the period of eligibility.
