Are any of you extremely familiar with California maternity leave laws? I am currently interviewing for a job in California with my existing company. I have been with the company well over 12 months, so it would technically be a transfer or promotion. Do you know if I would qualify for California maternity leave since I've been with the company over 12 months or would I not qualify because I would only be in CA for about 2 months before birth? Or would it vary depending on the company? I will certainly ask HR if I get the offer, but I am just curious in the meantime.
Re: California Maternity Leave Question
From the state's view, you are with the same company - your pay check will be coming from the same employer id number, so I don't think it will be a problem as your paycheck will look no different to the state. You should only get one W-2 at the end of the year, with your combined earnings. There is no classification on the info going to the state that would designate you as with a different department.
I don't see how it would be a problem from PFL standpoint on the state's end.

Sorry! I didn't get that there was a move TO California involved! My bad!
But I do think your HR is the professional so she/he will know more then me.
Also, Google was actually a good resource especially the Kaiser one so check it out!
Hopefully I helped a little!

@eortman from the above I think
It's safe to say if you have not been paying into CA SDI you won't get any paid time off!

We planned a summer baby so I wouldn't have to use sick time to cover leave.
