April 19, 2022 New Paid Leave Category, Parental Bereavement Leave The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for the fiscal year 2022 established a new paid leave entitlement for most federal employees. Eligible employees receive two workweeks (80 hours) of paid parental bereavement leave following the death of a qualifying child. An employee may not receive more than two workweeks of bereavement leave in any 12-month period. Eligibility Most federal employees are eligible for this leave if they earn annual and sick leave, and: • Serve under a permanent or term appointment. Temporary appointments of one year or less are not eligible. • Have an established part-time or full-time work schedule. Intermittent employees are not eligible. • Have completed at least 12 months of service. • A supervisor may require that you supply a written self-certification or other documentation such as a death certificate. • Have a Qualifying Child: Child means a biological, adopted, or foster child, stepchild, legal ward, or a child of a person standing in loco parentis who is: a. Under the age of 18, or b. 18 and older and incapable of self-care because of a mental or physical disability. When to Use It • You must be in pay status and use during your normal tour of duty. Seasonal employees may not use it during the off-season when in non-pay status. • Within 12 months of a qualifying child’s death. A 12-month period starts on the date of the death of the child and continues for 12 months. If you suffer the death of another child during the same 12-month period, you are entitled to another 12-month period. Any bereavement leave that you take during the overlap of the 12-month periods counts against each period. • Retroactively dating back to the effective date of NDAA. You may submit a corrected timesheet if you used a different leave category for the death of a qualifying child dating back to December 27, 2021. • You lose all unused bereavement leave after the 12-month period expires. How to Use It • You are entitled to use bereavement leave upon request if you meet all eligibility requirements. • Once you start bereavement leave, you must use it continuously unless you have advanced approval from your supervisor to use it intermittently. • Until the National Finance Center implements the new Transaction Code (TC), use code TC- 66 Administrative Leave and note in the remarks section of Paycheck8, that the leave is for Paternity Bereavement.
