Concerning electronic notices and orders in certain unemployment compensation cases.

HB 2563 allows Washington state to send unemployment compensation hearing notices and decisions electronically to claimants, with a pilot program for unemployment cases through June 2029. It requires claimants' agreement for electronic service in most cases (except the pilot period) and updates existing rules for how these notices must be delivered. The bill affects unemployment claimants and the Washington State Employment Security Department, streamlining communication while maintaining written notice requirements. It takes effect July 1, 2026.
