Your WBA is based on your highest quarter of earnings in your base period. It is the amount the EDD determines you will be paid for each week you are unable to work.
Your claim begins on the date your family leave began. The date the family leave claim begins determines your base period. You may not change the beginning date of your claim or adjust a base period after establishing a valid claim.
If you have any questions about your claim start date, please contact PFL at before filing your claim. A base period covers 12 months and is divided into four consecutive quarters. The base period includes wages subject to SDI tax which were paid approximately 5 to 18 months before your family leave claim began.
The base period does not include wages paid at the time your family leave begins. The following information may be used to determine the base period for your claim.
If a claim begins on or after January 1, Special base period: Under certain circumstances, the law allows substitution of wages paid in quarters before the normal base period of your claim in order to make your claim valid. If your current base period was negatively affected by military service, industrial disability, trade dispute, or long-term unemployment, contact PFL at to verify if you are eligible for the special base period and provide additional information to support your request.
The WBA is determined by using the quarter in which you were paid the highest wages in your base period. Under certain circumstances, you may not be eligible for a period of your PFL claim or you may be entitled only to partial benefits.
The EDD will determine if benefits must be reduced. Some income types must be reported to the EDD even though they may not always affect your benefits.
In addition, your benefits may be reduced because of a prior Unemployment Insurance, PFL, or DI overpayment or for delinquent court-ordered child or spousal support payments. To avoid overpayment, penalties, and a false statement disqualification you must report all your income to the EDD.
