Summary:
The claimant explained the difficulties she had encountered in getting her last pay cheque as well as her record of employment and contacted the Commission when she was told by the Ministry of Labour that it would take as long as 120 days to complete their investigation. The Umpire found that the claimant had provided good reasons for her 6 week delay, considering all her circumstances and efforts to deal with her situation. He stated that the benefit of the doubt should be given to claimant in such situations rather than use the legislation to prevent a claimant from receiving benefits.
