Paid Family Leave Planner
What your leave actually pays, week by week - your state's paid leave, disability for recovery, FMLA job protection, and your employer's benefits, on one timeline.

Paid leave by state
One page per state with a paid program: how much it pays per week, how many weeks, waiting periods, and the official sources. Maryland and Virginia are included because their programs are law but not paying yet, whatever the roundups say.
Every other state has no state paid family leave program. The calculator above still builds your plan there: FMLA job protection, your employer's paid leave, short-term disability, and PTO.
Estimate only. This planner is an estimate based on published state rules as of the date shown on the result. It is not legal, tax, or HR advice. Your state agency decides your actual benefit from your wage history, and your employer's policies may differ or offset state benefits. Confirm your figures with the state program and your employer before making decisions.
Recovery lengths used here are the typical 6 weeks after a vaginal birth and 8 weeks after a cesarean - your doctor and your claim decide yours. State benefits are estimated from the annual income you enter; states calculate from your actual wage history, so your number can differ.
