Summary:
The claimant is appealing an allocation of earnings made. During the benefit period the claimant indicated “no” to the question “did you work or receive any earnings during the period in this report. This includes work for which you will be paid later, unpaid work or self employment”. The claimant had received however from his employer an advance on future wages, but understood that it would constitute earnings only when this advance was earned as wages and not when the advance was paid. To contest the allocation he claims that this advance on future wages became earnings retroactively and that retroactive earnings are not to be allocated. Pursuant to subsection 35(1) of the Regulations, “income” means any pecuniary or non-pecuniary income that is or will be received by an employer. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed.
