Can I benefit from the 104-week extended eligibility period for EI parental benefits?
If you are a Canadian Forces member who cannot collect all your parental benefits during the regular eligibility period for EI parental benefits because an imperative military requirement has either interrupted or deferred your parental leave, you are entitled to an extended eligibility period as long as you meet the eligibility criteria. If you are entitled to the extension, your eligibility period will be extended by one week for every week that you are unable to collect EI parental benefits because of an imperative military requirement.
