Benefits shall be paid promptly in accordance with a claims adjudicator’s finding and determination, or reconsidered finding or reconsidered determination, or the decision of a Referee, the Board of Review or a reviewing court, upon the issuance of such finding and determination, reconsidered finding, reconsidered determination or decision, regardless of the pendency of the period to apply for reconsideration, file an appeal, or file a complaint for judicial review, or the pendency of any such application or filing, unless and until such finding, determination, reconsidered finding, reconsidered determination or decision has been modified or reversed by a subsequent reconsidered finding or reconsidered determination or decision, in which event benefits shall be paid or denied with respect to weeks thereafter in accordance with such reconsidered finding, reconsidered determination, or modified or reversed finding, determination, reconsidered finding, reconsidered determination or decision. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, if benefits are paid pursuant to a finding or a determination, or a reconsidered finding, or a reconsidered determination, or a decision of a Referee, the Board of Review or a court, which is finally reversed or modified in subsequent proceedings with respect thereto, the benefit wages on which such benefits are based shall, for the purposes set forth in Section 1502, or benefit charges, for purposes set forth in Section 1502.1, be treated in the same manner as if such final reconsidered finding, reconsidered determination, or decision had been the finding or determination of the claims adjudicator. If benefits are paid pursuant to a finding, determination, reconsidered finding or determination, or a decision of a Referee, the Board of Review, or a court which is finally reversed or modified in subsequent proceedings with respect thereto, the benefit charges, for purposes set forth in Section 1502.1, shall be treated in the same manner as if the finding, determination, reconsidered finding or determination, or decision of the Referee, the Board of Review, or the court pursuant to which benefits were paid had not been reversed if: (1) the benefits were paid because the employer or an agent of the employer was at fault for failing to respond timely or adequately to the Department’s request for information relating to the claim; and (2) the employer or agent has established a pattern of failing to respond timely or adequately to such requests.
