Summary:
The Commission denied benefits since it was of the view that the claimant did not demonstrate just cause for leaving his employment. According to the Commission the claimant concealed the fact that he had worked and received income while he was receiving benefits and therefore imposed a penalty and a notice of violation was issued. The claimant states he was under great stress due to the domestic situation and the deteriorating relationship with his wife and still relied on her to make his reports. The claimant has provided no medical evidence as to the effect the domestic situation had affected his ability to accurately complete his application for benefits on March 4, 2009. There is no justification for his not declaring his employment with X from February 2008 to December 2008. The Board does not find the claimant had just cause for voluntarily leaving his employment because he has failed to show he had no reasonable alternative to leaving when he did. The appeal by the claimant before the Umpire is dismissed.
