Questão jurídica principal
Whether the late submission of job-search efforts for August 2017 could still be considered
Decisão extraída
No. The proof was filed after the deadline and no excusable reason for the delay was shown.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 17 AVIG and Art. 26 AVIV, job-search efforts must be proven by the fifth day of the following month. The claimant knowingly disregarded this duty; outstanding benefit payments did not excuse non-compliance.
