What is the delay in accepting a complaint from a complainant who has been late in filing for over a year?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Safaei v. Vancouver Island Health Authority, 2017 BCHRT 214 (CanLII):

The length of the delay in this case is approximately one month, which is not excessive if the complainant provides an explanation that would allow me to conclude it is in the public interest to accept the late filed complaint: Shewfelt v. Valley First and another, 2012 BCHRT 277, at para. 16.
