OO v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

The Appeal Division allowed the appeal in part, remitted the penalty/false-statements issues to the General Division for reconsideration, and substituted the General Division's decision on disentitlement: claimant is disentitled to EI benefits for April 13–20, 2022 and June 7–14, 2022 because he was outside Canada and did not meet any section 55 regulatory exception; the General Division erred by applying the "reasonable and customary efforts" criteria to availability and by failing to decide the penalty/false-statement issues.
