Will my EI get cut off if I take Online courses at the University?
I have been on EI for about 2 months, and I still have a few more months to go. But for whatever reason I decided to take online courses through the U of Manitoba, and now EI is saying they have to Analyze my report and will get back to me. Does anyone know if it will get cut off, or because it’s online and works on my own schedule it will be ok?
I just wanted to say that because I am studying less than 15 hours a week, it worked out.

no one knows your full situation but my feeling is no. you’re not employed - you’re re-training while unemployed
my best guess is that it will depend on your course load. if you can demonstrate that you really are available for work and actually have the time to work, along with your courses, you “may” be okay.
If it would seem unreasonable that you could take these courses and still work, you may be penalized or cut off.
they may ask you for proof of active job search under this circumstance.
It’s unfortunate that they do this as taking courses sure beats sitting around twiddling thumbs and I’m pretty sure everyone knows there is only “so much” job searching” you can do and with the internet it is now pretty quick and easy to look for work and do other things as well.
good luck!
