under the Family and Medical Leave Act
DO NOT SEND COMPLETED FORM TO THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR. OMB Control Number: 1235-0003
RETURN TO THE PATIENT. Expires: 6/30/2023
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides that an employer may require an employee seeking FMLA leave to care for a
family member with a serious health condition to submit a medical certification issued by the family member’s health care provider. 29
U.S.C. §§ 2613, 2614(c)(3); 29 C.F.R. § 825.305. The employer must give the employee at least 15 calendar days to provide the
certification. If the employee fails to provide complete and sufficient medical certification, his or her FMLA leave request may be
denied. 29 C.F.R. § 825.313. Information about the FMLA may be found on the WHD website at www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fmla.
SECTION I - EMPLOYER
Either the employee or the employer may complete Section I. While use of this form is optional, this form asks the health care provider
for the information necessary for a complete and sufficient medical certification, which is set out at 29 C.F.R. § 825.306. You may not
ask the employee to provide more information than allowed under the FMLA regulations, 29 C.F.R. §§ 825.306-825.308.
Additionally, you may not request a certification for FMLA leave to bond with a healthy newborn child or a child placed for adoption
or foster care.
Employers must generally maintain records and documents relating to medical information, medical certifications, recertifications, or
medical histories of employees or employees’ family members created for FMLA purposes as confidential medical records in separate
files/records from the usual personnel files and in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 1630.14(c)(1), if the Americans with Disabilities Act
applies, and in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 1635.9, if the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act applies.

SECTION II - EMPLOYEE
Please complete and sign Section II before providing this form to your family member or your family member’s health care provider.
The FMLA allows an employer to require that you submit a timely, complete, and sufficient medical certification to support a request
for FMLA leave due to the serious health condition of your family member. If requested by your employer, your response is required
to obtain or retain the benefit of the FMLA protections. 29 U.S.C. §§ 2613, 2614(c)(3). You are responsible for making sure the
medical certification is provided to your employer within the time frame requested, which must be at least 15 calendar days. 29
C.F.R. §§ 825.305-825.306. Failure to provide a complete and sufficient medical certification may result in a denial of your FMLA
leave request. 29 C.F.R. § 825.313.

Spouse means a husband or wife as defined or recognized in the state where the individual was married, including in a
common law marriage or same-sex marriage. The terms “child” and “parent” include in loco parentis relationships in which
a person assumes the obligations of a parent to a child. An employee may take FMLA leave to care for an individual who
assumed the obligations of a parent to the employee when the employee was a child. An employee may also take FMLA
leave to care for a child for whom the employee has assumed the obligations of a parent. No legal or biological relationship
is necessary.
