If an employee recently took 10 weeks of FMLA for military caregiver leave, how much time does she have remaining under FMLA military caregiver?

  1. 16 weeks

  2. 2 weeks

  3. 14 weeks

  4. 10 weeks

The correct answer is: 16 weeks

The correct answer reflects an understanding of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) regulations regarding military caregiver leave. Under FMLA, a qualified employee is entitled to a total of 26 workweeks of leave in a single 12-month period when caring for a covered service member with a serious injury or illness. Since the employee has already taken 10 weeks of this leave, she has 16 weeks remaining. This allows her to take additional time if necessary within the parameters of the law. Understanding that military caregiver leave provides a broader entitlement compared to other types of leave under FMLA is crucial. The other choices do not align with the total allowed leave for military caregiver situations. Selecting any of those would indicate a misunderstanding of the leave time allocation mandated by FMLA for this specific scenario.
