What is the name of your state? Florida
My husband has been out for about a month on short term disability, and is covered under FMLA. His company also pays a percentage of his salary, and continues his benefits until 26 weeks is up, or unless he quits and takes another job.
Due to his illness, we already know he will not be able to return to work. We have decided to move back to his home state of Indiana for help with his long term care. My question is, if we move out of state before the 26 weeks is up, will he still be protected under FMLA and his short term disability, or will he be considered 'quitting' and therefore lose the salary and benefits he is currently receiving? I'm sure I can get a letter from his dr. stating that moving the best course of action, since he has already told us this.
Thanks for your help!
