Will foreign travel affect EI claim?
I would like to take my family, including wife, daughter, and sister-in-law to NYC on AC - perhaps on July 4 weekend - in part to celebrate all 4 of us just having received nexus/GE.
My sister-in-law is applying for EI. I would be essentially paying for all expenses - including Aeroplan award on AC through my SE account.
She is concerned that any foreign travel (incl. USA) would make her ineligible for EI.
She is basing that upon the fact that when she was on EI in 2007, and again she travelled with us to Phoenix, she was "dinged" by EI.
