Indiana EEOC filing deadline
Indiana is a 300-day federal jurisdiction for Title VII bases. The 300-day extension under 42 U.S.C. §2000e-5(e)(1) rule applies, with dual-filing mechanics under 29 CFR §1601.13.

State FEPA
State filing window
Runs independently of the federal 180/300 clock. Some states impose a tighter internal deadline; others (CA 3-year, IL/OH 730-day post-amendment) extend well past the federal window.
Worksharing posture
Worksharing agreement in effect. Filing with either the EEOC or the state agency typically constitutes filing with both.
Federal circuit
Indiana is in the 7th Circuit. Federal appellate treatment of Morgan (2002) continuing-violation doctrine and constructive-discharge doctrine varies by circuit and is reviewed quarterly.
Where Indiana state law goes beyond federal
Title VII covers race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. ADA adds disability; ADEA adds age 40+; GINA adds genetic information. Many state FEPAs cover additional bases that federal law does not — those gaps are real grounds even when the federal claim is closed.

FAQ
What is the EEOC charge filing deadline in Indiana?
300 days from the most recent discriminatory act under 42 U.S.C. §2000e-5(e)(1). Indiana has a designated Fair Employment Practices Agency (Indiana Civil Rights Commission (ICRC)) enforcing a same-basis state anti-discrimination law, which triggers the 300-day extension under 29 CFR §1601.13.
Does Indiana have a state-level discrimination agency?
Yes — Indiana Civil Rights Commission (ICRC) (https://www.in.gov/icrc/). Operating statute: Ind. Code §22-9-1-1 et seq.. Covered protected bases include race, color, religion, sex, national_origin, ancestry, age, disability, veteran_status.
Which federal circuit does Indiana sit in?
Indiana is in the 7th Circuit. Federal appeals from district courts in Indiana go to that Circuit. Continuing-violation doctrine treatment under Morgan (2002) varies by circuit; consult an employment-law attorney before relying on circuit-specific applications.
