Teachers are no exception.
There are, however, some variations to the rules because of contractual arrangements in the teaching profession. You can receive benefits from 14 to a maximum of 45 weeks depending on the amount of insurable hours you have. If you are working while on EI you must by law declare all your earnings. All earnings above that limit will be deducted dollar for dollar from your weekly benefits. You must report all gross earnings in the weeks they are earned.
