Hi everyone,
I was recently refused a Visa Extension and so my Temporary Residency Status has expired. I am also waiting for my Permanent Residency (Express Entry) application to be processed. I will be applying for a restoration of status in the mean time.
My question is about collecting Employers Insurance (EI) at this moment. I am currently unemployed and collecting the EI benefit. Can I continue collecting EI even through my temporary residency status has expired? Also, do IRCC run a background check on your SIN number as part of the PR (express entry) application to see if you have been collecting EI?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
P
