I was let go from my job. My termination letter says without prejudice and no specific reasons. However, my ROE says unsatisfactory performance. Will I be able to get EI? I'm afraid I won't get EI and I need the money to pay my bills and support to find a new job.

If the employer has provided you with notice of termination, or payment in lieu of notice of termination of your employment, you should have no issues with collecting EI, so long as you have enough insurable hours between claims.

Typically, only if your employer terminated your employment without notice for wilful misconduct, wilful neglect of duties or gross insubordination or if you resigned your employment, would you not be entitled to collect Employment Insurance.

Please contact our office for a consultation to discuss your specific circumstances.
