Can I carry-over unused weeks of military caregiver leave from one 12-month period to another?
A. No. If an employee does not use his or her entire 26-workweek leave entitlement during the single 12-month period of leave, the remaining workweeks of leave are forfeited. After the end of the single 12-month period for military caregiver leave, however, an employee may be entitled to take FMLA leave to care for the covered military member if the member is a qualifying family member under non-military FMLA and he or she has a serious health condition.
