Summary:
The Commission denied the claimant benefits for a period of unavailability for work after voluntary leaving to relocate with spouse. The Board of Referees and the Umpire determined that the claimant was entitled to a period to make arrangements for the move and for the children to change schools. The Federal Court of Appeal (FCA) concluded that claimants must prove their availability to work on a daily basis, pursuant to section 18 of the Employment Insurance Act (EIA).
