Summary:
On March 31, 2011, the Commission sent a letter to the claimant requesting an explanation for the seventeen month delay in filing his appeal. No response has been received from the claimant, therefore unable to ascertain that there are any special reasons which would warrant granting an extension of the appeal period. The appeal was not brought within the sixty-day limit prescribed by section 116 of the Employment Insurance Act. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
