Has anyone in this bowl ever taken FMLA to care for a sick family member? And if so, were you asked to use PTO time first?

Fmla as far as I know is not a paid leave so if they are asking you to take pto it’s so you get paid until the pto runs out.

You’re right, it’s not paid. That’s why a lot of companies want you to take your PTO first.

I took family care leave which is covered and paid at 100%. It’s a month to take care of a family member. I’ve used it twice over the years for different family member. It works in connection with Fmla and is administer by leave management service. So it requires medical documentation.

I’d check and see if there is any provision for this with your company.

Yes. I have an adult daughter with cancer. My firm has been amazing at giving me flexibility and provide intermittent leave benefits as well as “time when you need it”. I filed for FMLA just to make sure I was protected but really didn’t need to. I feel very very lucky.

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(
