of the occurrence of the alleged practice or the date on which the practice terminated. (b) Employment or public accommodations must be filed with the Commission not later

than 300 days after the date of the occurrence of the alleged practice. A complaint is timely if it is filed with an appropriate federal agency within that

complaints of discriminatory practices has made a decision upon a complaint based

upon the same facts and legal theory. 2. The complainant shall specify in the complaint the alleged unlawful practice and

sign it under oath. 3. The Commission shall send to the party against whom an unlawful discriminatory

practice is alleged: (a) A copy of the complaint; (b) An explanation of the rights which are available to that party; and (c) A copy of the Commission's procedures. 4. The Commission shall notify each party to the complaint of the limitation on the

period of time during which a person may apply to the district court for relief pursuant

to NRS 613.430 . 5. If a person files a complaint pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection 1 which alleges

an unlawful discriminatory practice in employment, the Commission shall, as soon as

practicable after receiving the complaint, notify in writing the person who filed

the complaint that the person may request the Commission to issue a right-to-sue notice

pursuant to NRS 613.412 . 6. For the purposes of paragraph (b) of subsection 1, an unlawful discriminatory practice

in employment which relates to compensation occurs on: (a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b), the date prescribed by 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(3)(A) , as it existed on January 1, 2019. (b) If 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(3)(A) is amended and the Commission determines by regulation that the section, as amended,

provides greater protection for employees than the section as it existed on January
