EI sickness and cppd

1

Hey everyone, it has been a while and I am sure people do this.

Since it takes 4 months minimum to get a decisions a thought occurred to me if you qualify. While waiting for cppd and if you have enough hours for ei, you can apply for ei sickness as it gives only 15 weeks, this should help with finances until you are approved, any thoughts?
