I followed up for an roe as my husband is disabled and all circumstances of my income have to be reported to them and the require me to pursue such things as ei, for which I needed an roe. It's been miscategorized to express that I quit due to caregiver responsibilities. This was never the case and I am looking to sue to have this corrected, but am confused as to whether I am making my case against the store owner (my employer) who directly fired me, the corporation or both. Can you please advise?
