When must I submit my request for Medical or Parental Leave?

We recommend that you submit your request in Workday at least 30 days in advance for foreseeable leave or as soon as practicable for unforeseeable leave. You will be allowed 15 calendar days to provide a completed Certification of Health Care Provider (CHCP) Form. The CHCP is needed to confirm your qualifying reason and to document the use of sick time off. For Military Exigency please provide reason/documentation for support.

Paid Parental Leave requests must be submitted 3 months prior to the Leave start date. For specific information related to Paid Parental Leave, refer to the HR website at UCF Paid Parental Leave.
