Employment insurance 2025 SST 1291

DB v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

Extension of time granted due to reasonable explanation (mail delays from Canada Post strike) but permission to appeal refused because there is no arguable ground: the General Division correctly applied the EI Act to establish the qualifying period and required 630 hours, the claimant raised new facts not put before the General Division (inadmissible), and there was no procedural, jurisdictional or other legal error evident that would allow intervention.

X v Canada Employment Insurance Commission and GL

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

On the balance of probabilities the General Division found the employer ended the employment relationship on May 27, 2025; the Claimant did not voluntarily leave and therefore is not disqualified from Employment Insurance benefits.

CH v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The Tribunal accepted the CRA ruling of September 2, 2025 on insurable earnings ($56,412.93) and hours (1,848.00) and the employer's revised ROE removing pay‑in‑lieu; applying the statutory formulas and Schedule I produced a weekly benefit rate of $661.00 and 38 entitlement weeks, and because the Tribunal lacks authority to write off overpayments it dismissed the appeal and upheld the Commission's determinations.

CE v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The employer's ROE established on a balance of probabilities that the Appellant earned $1,769.23 for work Sept 3-6, 2024; those gross earnings properly allocate to the week Sept 1-7, 2024 and, when applied under section 19(2) of the EI Act, reduce the Appellant's EI entitlement to zero yielding a $668 overpayment, while the assessed $334 penalty was validly rescinded because there was no knowingly false statement.

CA v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

Permission to appeal is refused because the claimant failed to establish an arguable reviewable error: the General Division correctly applied the statutory test that good cause must be shown for the entire delay and reasonably found the claimant did not take prompt steps to inquire about EI entitlement; the alleged language issue did not amount to a breach of natural justice.

SB v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

Permission to appeal was refused because the claimant failed to show an arguable case of jurisdictional error or important error of fact; the General Divisions findings that the claimant was ordinarily resident in southern Alberta, that the qualifying period produced 462 hours of insurable employment and that 665 hours were required under the regional rate were supported by the record, and the Tribunal lacks authority to write off the overpayment, so the appeal has no reasonable chance of success.

CA v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The appeal is dismissed because the appellant failed to prove, on a balance of probabilities, that he had good cause for the entire delay from December 1, 2024 to May 28, 2025; the employer’s later recoupment of payments (first noticed February 6, 2025) gave the appellant a continuing reason to inquire, and his prior EI knowledge and available means to inquire negate exceptional circumstances that would excuse the delay.

JR v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The appeal is dismissed because the CRA ruling established that the appellant worked 394 hours of insurable employment in the qualifying period, which is below the 600 hours required for special benefits; the Tribunal lacks the authority to alter the CRA's determination of insurable hours, so the appellant failed to prove entitlement on the balance of probabilities.

EA v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The appellant failed to prove good cause for the delay because she did not act as a reasonable and prudent person, did not take reasonably prompt steps to determine her entitlement, and offered no exceptional circumstances; therefore the application could not be antedated and the appeal was dismissed.

X v Canada Employment Insurance Commission and TM

Court
Social Security Tribunal of Canada

The claimant submitted a conditional resignation proposing an exclusive license and resignation by end of Q1; the employer accepted the resignation the next day but did not accept the attached conditions or discuss them, thereby severing employment; that constitutes a dismissal, not voluntary leave, and the dismissal was not for misconduct because the claimant did not know and should not have known his proposal could lead to dismissal; therefore the claimant is not disqualified from EI benefits.
