Paid Leave Oregon Intermittent leave Weekly Claim Form Instructions

Paid Leave Oregon Intermittent leave Weekly Claim Form

Product Information

The Weekly Claim Form is used for filing an intermittent leave claim. An intermittent leave claim refers to leave taken periodically in separate blocks of time or when leave is taken for two or more leave types simultaneously for an entire work day or work week from all employment. This form is specifically designed for use with the Paid Leave Oregon program. To receive payment on an intermittent leave claim, it is important to file a weekly claim within the first 30 days from the end of the week in which the intermittent leave was taken. Failure to file the weekly claim within this timeframe will result in the inability to receive payment for the leave. If you have requested retroactive intermittent leave and are still waiting for approval, this form should be filed along with your Paid Leave Oregon Application for Benefits or Claim Amendment Form. The quickest and easiest way to file a weekly claim, check the status of your claim, and view your benefit payments is by creating a Paid Leave Oregon account on the official website: frances.oregon.gov. Consecutive leave claims, which refer to leave taken for a continuous period of time without interruption, are not applicable to this form. If your consecutive leave claim is approved, your payments will be automatically sent to you. This form is only intended for intermittent leave claims.

Product Usage Instructions

1. Report the days of leave taken for each employer separately, including any self-employment if you choose coverage. This form can be used for up to three employers. If you have more than three employers, submit this form as many times as needed for the week to cover all of your employers.

2. If you have started any new jobs or left any jobs since your last claimed week of benefits, file a Claim Amendment Form in addition to the Weekly Claim Form.

3. Provide the following information for each employer:

   • Employer business name: Enter the name of your employer or self-employed business if you choose coverage.
   • Employer type: Check “Regular” if your employer participates in the statewide Paid Leave Oregon plan. Check “Equivalent plan” if your employer participates in their own equivalent plan.
   • Other benefits coverage: Check “Yes” if you are eligible for Unemployment Insurance or Workers’ Compensation benefits during the week. Otherwise, check “No”.

4. Enter the dates for the week. A week for Paid Leave Oregon runs from Sunday through Saturday. Do not claim multiple weeks on this form.

5. For each day of the week, indicate your work status by
   selecting one of the following:

   • “Took paid leave” – If you took paid leave on a day you would normally work.
   • “Worked” – If you worked for this employer at all on this day.
   • “Did not work” – If you did not work for this employer at all on this day.

6. If you took paid leave on any day, specify the leave type for each day. You can choose from the following options: Family-Care, Family-Bonding, Medical, Safe, or Pregnancy.

For example, if you took medical leave from ABC Corporation on Sunday through Wednesday, did not work any of the days, and were not eligible for Unemployment Insurance or Workers’ Compensation benefits, fill out the form accordingly.
