What to expect from your first FAMLI payment

Good news! You’ve successfully submitted your paid-leave claim and have started taking time away from work in order to care for yourself or a loved one. Now you want to know what your pay replacement will look like.

Colorado’s new Family and Medical Leave Insurance Division issued its first benefit payments this week. If you selected direct deposit as your payment option, FAMLI’s payments to your banking institution should arrive in your account within 24 hours or up to 72 hours depending on your bank.

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.
