Summary:
The claimant left his job to travel to and live in Winnipeg in order to follow his fiancée who had been transferred to Winnipeg. Prior to leaving Montreal, the claimant and his fiancée had not cohabited and they had no children together. The Board finds that the claimant does not meet the obligations to care for a member of his immediate family under the meaning of Subsection 51(1) of the EI Regulations. The Board concludes that the claimant did not have just cause for leaving his employment pursuant to sections 29 and 30 of the EI Act. The appeal by the claimant before the Umpire is dismissed.
