268.084 PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER; PRESUMPTION.
    (a) Each applicant must be issued a personal identification number (PIN) for the purpose
of filing continued requests for unemployment benefits, accessing information, and engaging in
other transactions with the department.
    (b) If a PIN assigned to an applicant is used in the filing of a continued request for
unemployment benefits under section 268.086 or any other type of transaction, the applicant
is presumed to have been the individual using that PIN and presumed to have received any
unemployment benefit payment issued. This presumption may be rebutted by a preponderance
of the evidence showing that the applicant assigned the PIN was not the individual who used
that PIN in the transaction.
    (c) The commissioner shall notify each applicant of this section.
