[quote=Anonymous]I think you can be advanced up to 240 hours of sick leave. Medical recovery from childbirth (what you can take sick leave for) generally is assumed to be 6 weeks for a standard birth or 8 weeks for a c-section.

some FINREG agencies have separate parental leave policies; at the SEC you are eligible for 6 weeks of parental leave as soon as you start, even if you are not eligible for FMLA.

Also, you may be able to join an agency leave bank on hire, which I would absolutely suggest doing. My agency's leave bank takes a donation of one pay period of leave annually for membership.

honestly, it's hard enough to find decent people and secure that headcount that a few-month blip for parental leave is nothing.

also, OP, ask about creditable service for annual leave accrual: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/leave-administration/fact-sheets/creditable-service-for-annual-leave-accrual-for-non-federal-work-experience-and-experience-in-the-uniformed-service/
