Summary:
The claimant filed an EI benefit claim and indicated that he worked as an in-ground swimming pool installer. The Commission investigation showed that he had never really been unemployed; the claimant was not able to contradict, because he continued to provide services to his spouse's company, his employer, during her company's slow periods, for a minimum of 40 hours a week. He reported not working but remaining available for work, knowing that he was working full time for his spouse's business. The claimant stated that working for his spouse was not really a job and that he was not interested in working other than in his spouse's business. The calmants appeal is dismissed.
