Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
antedate  conscious choice  negligence 

Summary:

No circumstances suggested such as illness or illiteracy. The need for promptitude should not be lightly ignored. Not reasonable for one to make no effort to even ascertain eligibility and then to apply a year after. Claimants must take some responsibility.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
antedate  ignorance of the law  not an excuse 

Summary:

In ALBRECHT, there was good cause when one acted on the advice of third persons from whom it was reasonable to take advice. It does not apply to one who did nothing to obtain advice, not even erroneous advice. Claimant here made no effort to find out from anyone.
