The FAMLI Benefits Calculator is currently being updated to reflect the 2025-26 state average weekly wage. Up-to-date information regarding your current benefits will be found in your My FAMLI+ account.
The FAMLI program ensures Colorado workers have access to paid leave when life circumstances force them to choose between earning a paycheck, or taking care of themselves or their family. Eligible employees may receive up to twelve weeks of leave. Those who experience pregnancy or childbirth complications may receive up to an additional four weeks.
FAMLI Leave benefits are available for twelve weeks per year, beginning the first day of your approved leave.

Reasons to take FAMLI Leave
Colorado workers can apply for FAMLI leave for the following reasons (click each image for additional information):
FAMLI is for Colorado Workers
Most Colorado workers are eligible for FAMLI benefits, including self-employed individuals, independent contractors, and employees of local government employers that have opted out. Most Colorado employees will become eligible to take paid leave after they have earned at least $2,500 in wages. These wages must be subject to FAMLI premiums over a period of roughly the last year.
How FAMLI Works
FAMLI leave may be taken continuously, intermittently, or in the form of a reduced work schedule. (Click here for additional information on the different ways FAMLI leave can be scheduled and used.)
