I just ask. I delayed my starting a new job as a director of a critical care department by two months based on benefits. January one you only had to wait for benefits for 30 days had I started it right away I would’ve had to wait 90 days. Just be upfront and honest

I think it sort of depends on your reason. But if you need the time I would at least ask, the worst they can say to you is no. I wish you good luck.

I don't think it hurts to ask. The worst they can say is no. They will likely allow you to though.

Any suggestions on how this might be addressed?
