How does it works? You should have PR on process? And valid work permit? Even you haven't receive your owp yet?

whether your PR is on the process or not, as long as you are jobless and you still have a valid work permit you can apply for EI.

Sweetchad- oh I didn't know that.. Because I phoned before and they said that doesn't apply for live in caregiver. (temporary worker) we are just paying it to accumulate the money when we get our pr. Do you know caregiver who's on EI? I just want to know so I can let my cousin know too. She's worried she might lost her job because the old lady might die soon.

i think 900 plus a month.as they said its 75 percent of your monthly income.thats just my presumptions.
 
@sweetchad-that is ok if it is like that? would it affect my application of work permit and PR? because when i applied for a work permit extension my employer said that she will renew me up to jan 2012 . What do you think?

@rosellyalung - I don't think that matters. If you don't have a work while waiting doesn't affect the application

@ rosellyalung- I don't have Facebook sorry. I just phone CIC last Friday and said that at that time my paper has no problem. Just wait till 11 months of course. I just email the paralegal about the EI. I know that some got EI but what I understand is our permit is for only one employer so we can't get EI. I'm confused about this EI thing. Can't make a straight answer to my cousin.
