Each is up to 16 weeks. So can be as much as 32 weeks in total.[/quote] No, no, no! DC FMLA is 16 weeks. You can 16 weeks, but your paid 6 weeks counts as the first 6 weeks. The rest may be unpaid, if your employer doesn't offer additional paid leave. VA is 13 weeks, one additional week to the Fed FMLA. I took 16 weeks off, an additional 4 unpaid weeks, with the consent of my employer and went back part-time. All this was arranged beforehand.[/quote] Second PP is wrong. DC FMLA is 32 weeks total, but split into 16 weeks medical and 16 weeks family care. Most people will only qualify for 6-8 weeks of medical leave (vaginal birth- c-section), so DC FMLA is typically 22-24 weeks. None of this relates to pay. This is the leave allowed for which your position, or a similar one, will be held. Whether you're paid or not has to do with the policies of your employer. [/quote]
