Has anyone recently filed for employment insurance after moving to the US? On service Canada's website, they state that you must provide proof that you are legally authorized to work in the US.. soo... you need to wait until you have an EAD?

Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated.

I humbly suggest this thread

i dont think you can obtain EI from canada once you move to the U.S.

yes you can

Oh yes u can!!! Read the sticky at the top or the link above provided

OMG..........ok i am so confused now then. NEED INFO. I was getting EI in canada right up till I moved to U.S 2 weeks ago. I actaully filed my last check last week, I didnt know if i were allowed to file on line here in U.S or not but i did it anyway, I figure i will have to pay it back. ANYWAY, now how do I keep my claim open? or is it too late, will I get in trouble because i never informed them of the move, visa etc.....

thanks,

you should probably read the other thread and call the number

they're very helpful

Yeah you should definitely give them a call.

The most people situation here is that we all left a current job to move with our spouse in the US, which makes us qualified for EI in the US from Canada. But if you were already on the EI in Canada that's another story.
