Maternity Leave in CA - Why so complicated?

in Northern California Babies

Ok so I go on leave in 20 days or so.

My HR dept says my Dr office completes the state disability forms, my Drs office says my HR dept completes the forms.

So I went on the edd website myself and printed out a few I thought were the correct ones and am bringing them in to the Dr this Friday.

I was able to DL the DE 2501 form, but then the other form had to be ordered... does that sound right?  :

ANYONE have some insite on this?

SO CONFUSED!!!!!!!!!

    I keep thinking people must not have babies and go on leave because it always seems like you're the 1st that's ever done it (and the 1st HR has ever dealt with)

    Agreed. Totally confusing.

    My HR was completely different because we have self-disability insurance.

     Any chance you have Kaiser? I know they have business offices at some locations to help people with paperwork.

    for me, the doctor gave me the forms.  I filled them out and then gave them back to the doctor because there's a section on there where the doctor has to confirm your pregnancy, etc.  My doctor's office sent them in for me.

     

    ETA:  I pretty much run our HR department, and out of 4 pregnancies or so in our office in the last couple of years, I have NEVER seen the pregnancy disability forms or had to fill them out for anyone.

    If you have Kaiser they give you the forms, you and your Dr. fill them out I believe and you drop them off at an office inside the hospital.

    I agree though it is TOTALLY confusing!

    blarg!!

    Ok I figured I would skip stopping by my HR Dept. I'm w/PAMF...

    They do have a disbility dept so I'm hoping that me bringing in the forms will get something moving...

     that's really odd - I'm with PAMF (mtn view) and they took care of everything - I just dropped off the form (with my portions completed) to the reception staff at the ob/gyn desk and they took care of everything else.
