The claimant did not act as a reasonable person in his situation and did nothing to protect his claim for benefits. The Commission appeal is allowed by the Umpire.

antedate qualifying conditions number of weeks/hours
Summary:

An application for Judicial Review was filed with regard to a Social Security Tribunal (SST) – Appeal Division (AD) decision, which allowed the Commission’s appeal and rescinded the SST -General Division (GD) decision that found that the applicant had just cause for delay in claiming Employment Insurance (EI) benefits. The Applicant made a claim but did not have enough insurable hours. She requested that her claim be antedated as this would give her enough insurable hours. The applicant claimed she did not know that she could apply for EI benefits on the basis of her medical training program. In conclusion, the FCA set aside the decision of the SST-AD allowing the claimant’s application.
