Does the seven (7) day waiting period for Disability and Paid Family Leave need to be seven consecutive days?
No. The required seven-day non-payable waiting period does not need to be taken seven days in a row. For example, if care were provided one day per week, the seven-day waiting period would be served over a seven-week period. Benefits are payable once the seven days have been served and all other eligibility criteria are met.
