Employers! Don't forget to update your total employee headcount for 2025 premiums

All employers with Colorado employees must update their total employee headcount for 2025 in My FAMLI+ Employer by February 28, 2025.

This will ensure your business is paying accurate FAMLI premium rates. It’s a requirement for all employers with Colorado employees, even those that have been approved to use a private plan to meet their FAMLI obligations. The only exceptions are local government employers who have voted to opt out of the program.

Want to switch your business from a private plan to the FAMLI plan? Here’s what you need to know

If you’re an employer currently using an approved private plan to fulfill your FAMLI obligations and are interested in switching to Colorado’s state-run FAMLI coverage, our doors are open, and it’s easy to make the change. 

Colorado employers have a choice when meeting their obligations to offer paid family and medical leave to their employees. They may use the FAMLI Division to file quarterly wage reports and premiums, or they may get the Division’s approval to use a private insurance plan that meets or exceeds the law’s requirements.

How to navigate FAMLI overpayments

FAMLI benefits are calculated for each unique claimant, and if those calculations change, the benefit can change, too. In some cases, claimants may find that they’ve been overpaid by the FAMLI Division.

Knowing when to send FAMLI a picture

Many Colorado workers filing FAMLI claims are using  a smartphone, which makes it easy to snap an image of their ID when verifying their identity. This will be the only time you will need to submit a photo.

When it comes to verifying health conditions or helping someone who is incapacitated, the FAMLI Division will never ask for photographic evidence. Instead, we created an online portal for health care providers to verify conditions for their patients.
