Summary:
The Commission denied the claimant's request to renew her benefits. She appealed the Commission’s decision to the General Division of the SST, which found that she could receive benefits only within a period of 52 weeks after they began. Since her benefit period began in September 2013, she would normally have had to claim any outstanding benefits prior to September 2014. An extension of that period for another year might have been available, but that would allow the claimant to receive benefits only until September 2015.The claimant returned to the country outside the benefit period. The claimant appealed the General Division’s decision to the Appeal Division of the SST, which concluded that her appeal had no reasonable chance of success and refused her application for leave to appeal. The application for judicial review was dismissed.
