Applying for Employment Insurance (EI) Benefits: Postdoctoral Fellows (Employees)

You should apply for Employment Insurance (EI) Maternity/Parental Benefits from Human Resources and Skills Development Canada as soon as you receive your Record of Employment (ROE) from Financial Services. (Ensure that Financial Services has your current home address since they will mail the ROE after your last paycheque has been generated.)

Your ROE can also be picked up in person, either by making an appointment with your Financial Services Representative, or by proxy if they have a signed letter authorizing them to do so.

Details on applying for Employment Insurance Maternity/Parental Benefits can be found at Human Resources and Skills Development Canada.
