Documents Needed:
- Serious Health Condition form: when applying for medical leave, your licensed health care provider must fill out and sign your serious health condition form. You must start the claim filing process in My FAMLI+ in order to download a form that is unique to you. If your doctor is already registered in the system, they’ll be able to certify your claim all online without having to pass around paperwork. You can encourage your doctor to register by giving them this flyer.
- For all reasons an individual applies for FAMLI leave, the Division may request additional reasonable information or documentation necessary (outside of what’s asked for in My FAMLI+) to process the claim.
