I have looked this up on the CRA site, but I cannot seem to find a clear answer. My wife is currently self employed (40+ hrs a week), and does not currently contribute to EI.
If she were to go on Maternity Leave, I presume she would not be eligible for EI based on the fact that she has never paid in correct? However, anyone know how long she would need to pay in for in order to be eligible for benefits?
Thanks.
