Is the Quebec Parental Insurance Plan different from the current federal maternity and parental benefits plan?
Yes, while the two programs are similar, there are a number of differences. For example, the Quebec plan allows claimants a choice between two options as to the duration of the leave and the benefit rate. It has a maximum insurable income of $57,000 per year. The federal EI program offers one duration and one rate, and has a maximum insurable income of $39,000 per year.
