They should keep a record of their search history. Anyone can be pulled in for an information session at any point in time, so it's important to be accurate and keep up to date with your responsibilities while collecting

Yes, they can get in trouble for not showing an acceptable job search history. Regardless of their efforts now. Your full time job while collecting EI is to look for work, it's not to take a vacation.Tisito2829 wrote: ↑ Thank you for response clseea
Wasn't really answered efore by bellagirl beyond "not acceptable" which the friend knows now.
Main question still has is "if they can't provide specific detail beyond "looked at job boards week 1" and same for week 2, 3 etc, etc for the first few months but didnt really apply for 3 or so months since they were being too specific and didnt see much but now applying to more broadly and able to specify specific applications now but couldnt beyond the generic "looked at job boards", can get in trouble now for before?
Or audit and kicked off ei or get penalty?
Even if they being specific now and showing individual applications now but couldnt before?
Or okay now they show being more proactive now even if not before?
Thanks you appreciate much

Thanks Clseea. I put it under the "hours worked" question and it went through fine. My question is, I just found out my friend put it under "other money" but her report went through fine just like mine, with no prompt to call Service Canada to provide more information. So hers should have gone through fine too, right?

The chance is between 0 and 100%Tisito2829 wrote: ↑ Thank you for reply!
What kind of trouble? Would it just be ei cutoff or could it be court or fine penalty on top of that?
What is chance of being audited?
Sorry for asking more but they is very worried now even though they do proper job log now, and not be picky and actually send applications.
Thanks again

I'm not sure what your question is, that was tricky to followsmilec12 wrote: ↑ Hi Friends,
I am having into some complicated situation, I am not sure if anyone in this forum can help me or not.
I got temporary laid off from 16th Mar, 2020 due to covid. So I applied for EI but after declaring CERB I am getting CERB now.
Later I came to know that I am pregnant and doctor mentioned my expected date of delivery is end of Nov, beginning of Dec, 2020.
So I have few questions related to the situation. I tried calling Service Canada several times but unable to get hold of any customer care representatives. So I am posting my questions here if anyone can help:
My CERB Eligibility (16 weeks): till 15th July, 2020
My Maternity Eligibility (Max 12 weeks prior): from 01st Sep, 2020.
Now If I did not get call from my employer (due to shortage of work) after my CERB utilization is over (i.e Did not get call post 15th July, 2020) then my EI benefit will kicks in. Assume if I get call from Employer to join from 01st Aug, 2020. So from 15th Jul, 2020-01st Aug, 2020 I am will be in EI. As per my understanding if someone is in EI benefit that person need to complete 600hrs again to eligible for maternity leave. In that case I have only 1 month left (01-Sep-2020)to start my maternity leave and I dont have option to complete my 600hrs again. So that means I will not be eligible for Maternity leave benefits.

Essentially you need to have 600 hours to qualify for maternity/parental benefits.smilec12 wrote: ↑ Hi Friends,

Usually only a few days. It should be deposited this upcoming week.britishcanadian wrote: ↑ I applied for EI at the beginning of March, and finally got an email and status update on April.13 with the words: Claim Finalized; Decision Made
I see the breakdown of all the payment info, but have yet to receive a payment - How long does it usually take to receive the money the government took from me in the first place, from Decision Made, to bank account?

Don't bother declaring thatJimmyCorn wrote: ↑ Hello,
there is a question when doing the online EI reports regarding training.
Here is the question:
Training - Did you attend school or a training course during the period of this report?
I said no, for the report period covering April 19th - May 2nd.
I purchased the online course on April 27th, but I didn't start doing it until today. Was I supposed to say yes? I am really worried now.
Is the online Smart Serve course even considered training or school? Should I say no, since I am not actually attending? I already finished the course today in about 3 hours, I just need to take the final test.
I want to make sure I am doing everything correctly. I figured having this certificate would help me find a job more easily.
Are the Smart Serve online courses considered attending training? I am confused, please help.

Thank you @OldMarriedGuy. But my question is I was temporarily laid off due to Covid and if I did not get call to join back then how can i accumulate 600hrs of work. If its normal situation (non covid scenario) then I can continue my work and apply for Maternity as per the process.OldMarriedGuy wrote: ↑ Essentially you need to have 600 hours to qualify for maternity/parental benefits.
Regardless of whatever else is going on, you will need to have this amount in order to qualify.

Login to your My Service Canada Account/internet reporting service to see when your report is duesupermike wrote: ↑ My EI was finally established last week.
Just some info for someone who might want to know. I applied for regular EI but they assigned CERB to me. I googled and found out that all EI claims after March 15th automatically become CERB for the first 4 months. If your regular EI is less than 2000 a month, you get 2000. If your regular EI is more than 2000 a month (regular EI has max 573 a week, CERB is 500 a week), you get a pay cut. The difference is after 4 months, CERB stops. regular EI applicants continue to receive regular EI payment until it expires.
My question is. My EI was established last week. I haven't got any payment yet. When do I start reporting? Before I receive any money or after I start getting payments? Thanks!
