What is the length of time I may be approved for an Intermittent Leave or Reduced Schedule Leave?

If you are approved for an Intermittent Leave or Reduced Schedule Leave, then only the amount of leave actually taken may be counted toward the FMLA entitlement. Your Intermittent Leave or a Reduced Schedule Leave may be approved for up to 6 months or until your entitlement is exhausted, based on the medical certification provided by the physician. 

If your FMLA-qualifying condition lasts longer than 6 months, you will be required to recertify the need for leave by submitting an updated medical certification to the Disability Management Office.
