Appeals transmitted by facsimile are deemed filed on the date received by the Department or on the date recorded by the Commission fax system. Appeals submitted electronically through the RECONNECT system are deemed filed on the date the confirmation is issued by the system. The RECONNECT system shall post on the appeal the date the confirmation is issued and the appeal was successfully received by the system.
