EI regular benefits: What these benefits offer

EI regular benefits

Employment Insurance (EI) provides regular benefits to individuals who lose their jobs through no fault of their own (for example, due to shortage of work, or seasonal or mass lay-offs) and are available for and able to work, but can't find a job.

Disruption of Canada Post services

Due to the labour disruption at Canada Post, mail correspondence from some programs and services may be impacted.

Consult the list of impacted programs for updates.

Always apply for EI benefits as soon as you stop working. You can apply for benefits even if you haven't yet received your record of employment. If you delay filing your claim for benefits for more than 4 weeks after your last day of work, you may lose benefits.
