Summary:
The claimant's employment was terminated as of November 27, 2007 and he received severance payments. Because of the large severance package and the allocation of those monies, the claimant's benefit period was extended to 104 weeks, which is the maximum allowable in virtue of the legislation (section 10 of the Act). The Commission refused to pay benefits. The allocation of the claimant's separation monies went beyond the 104 weeks and that the claimant was unfortunately not payable any E.I. benefits. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire.
