What if an employer sends in an RIR conversion package on time, but the BEC denies the request to convert to RIR?
If the case cannot be converted to RIR for reasons other than those covered by the “hold harmless” opportunity (i.e., the BEC completing recruitment), then the case will continue processing as a TR case. The employer may attempt to convert to RIR again after remedying the reasons for denial; however, the “hold harmless” assurance will no longer be in place. In other words, if an RIR conversion package is submitted and the request for RIR conversion is denied, the employer may submit a second request, but if the BEC has begun the recruitment the second request will be denied.
