Summary:
The Commission refused to pay the claimant benefits because he had zero hours of insurable employment during his qualifying period. The claimant left his insurable employment to pursue self-employment to supplement his retirement income. During that period he was a self-employed worker and therefore did not have insurable employment. The claimant is a new entrant or re-entrant subsection 7(3) 7(4) 7(5) of Employment Insurance Act needs 910 hours in a qualifying period. Moreover, an antedate request was refused since the claimant did not qualify for benefits on the date for which the antedate was requested. The appeal before the Umpire is dismissed.
