Sec. 3. The commissioner is authorized to enter into reciprocal agreements with the proper agencies under the laws of other states or jurisdictions or of the United States, which agreements shall become effective after filing with the secretary of state in accordance with rules adopted by the department under IC 4-22-2, by the terms of which agreements:
(1) potential rights to benefits accumulated under the unemployment compensation laws of one (1) or more states or jurisdictions or of the United States, or both, may constitute the basis for the payment of benefits through a single appropriate agency under terms which the commissioner finds will be fair and reasonable to all affected interests and which will not result in any substantial loss to the fund; and
(2) wages or services in employment subject to an unemployment compensation law of another state or of the United States shall be deemed to be wages in employment for employers for the purpose of determining an individual's rights to unemployment compensation benefits under this article, and wages in employment for employers as defined in this article shall be deemed to be wages or services on the basis of which unemployment compensation under the law of another state or of the United States is payable, but no such arrangement shall be entered into unless it contains provisions for reimbursements to the unemployment insurance benefit fund for such of the unemployment compensation benefits paid under this part upon the basis of such wages or services, and provisions for reimbursements from the unemployment insurance benefit fund for such of the compensation paid under such other law upon the basis of wages for employment as defined in this article as the commissioner finds will be fair and reasonable to all affected interests.
