I just read in another topic, from nelsona replying to a poster:
"By the way, you won't be entitled to EI if you leave Canada, unless its for maternity leave."
My husband and I are moving to the U.S. within the next 6-12 months (I'm American, he's Canadian). I'm a permanent resident in Ontario, so I have OHIP. What exactly are the rules for receiving EI in the U.S. once we move if I'm on maternity leave? I've read a couple links from the Canadian government website but a lot of their explanations are over my head. Can anyone explain it so it's a bit easier for me to understand? Thanks.
one more question regarding pregnancy EI

You can collect mat leave EI while outside Canada, unlike regular EI benefits.

So, if you are collecting it before you leave, you will still collect after.
How much clearer do you need?[:D]

Technically, as long as you meet the criteria for receiving mat/pat leave, which requires you to have worked a certain time at some point in the previous 52 weeks, you could make a mat/pat claim after having left Canada.

Sure. But you will only collect benefites if you entitled to work in US after leaving Canada.
