Human Resources committee  That's correct.

Human Resources committee  I suggest that women be allowed to fill out the paperwork two months before their baby is born.

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  I'm not saying that they should actually receive a child benefit before they have a child, but all the administrative part would be done so that when they have a child, they can receive it as soon as possible.

Human Resources committee  Is that supplementary funding for people who, while they're pregnant, have to do a job that has a lower wage?

April 4th, 2017Committee meeting

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  I'm not sure that it would be the best distribution of funding. If you have a very high-paid position and you're taking a slightly lower pay, I'm not sure that it would be the best use of funding for the government to use money so that someone can get that extra $5 an hour, as op

Human Resources committee  They should be able to take their maternity leave earlier, with the 15 weeks or the 12 weeks. But if you have a strenuous job and your first trimester is a more vulnerable time.... I've never heard of the program that the gentleman from Quebec was speaking about, but that seems l

Human Resources committee  There are two delays. The first delay is receiving your maternity leave benefits. I know that's across the board when you apply for EI. You are not allowed to apply for your maternity leave benefits until you stop working, the day you stop working. In my case, I filled out the fo

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  Yes. It's not only loan expenses for the child that are upcoming—you have to purchase the car seat and all that before you have your child—but there are others. I had to have physiotherapy in my late pregnancy because I had had a previous late miscarriage that was traumatic. I

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  Absolutely. I saw myself yawning on the screen for a second and thought, “Oh no, I was up four times last night. I hope they don't notice.” I was on call on my previous job, the job that I intend to go back to at the hospital, and it was a very demanding job as well. This is much

Human Resources committee  She's four months.

April 4th, 2017Committee meeting

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  I filled out my paperwork. You have to apply for a social insurance number and health care number for your child. You apply for all of those things first, then you apply for the child tax benefit. I did it the day my daughter was born. There was no delay on our side, but it took

April 4th, 2017Committee meeting

Alicia Ibbitson

Human Resources committee  Yes, that's what I'm recommending. The only thing I could not fill out for the forms before was her date of birth. Really, I could have filled out everything else before that point and then, once I received the date of birth, I could have contacted them and had this added to my p
