Can I take an unpaid leave of absence to take care of a sick family member?

Yes. If eligible, you can apply for up to 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA leave to care for a sick family member with a physician’s statement. If you haven’t already used 3 personal days, you may use them now but you may not use any other CAR days. If you require additional time, you may take up to a year of unpaid leave to care for a sick/injured family member.
