FMLA, or the Family and Medical Leave Act, typically kicks in when you notify your employer of a qualifying reason for leave, such as a serious health condition, the birth or adoption of a child, or caring for a family member with a serious health issue. You must have worked for your employer for at least 12 months and clocked at least 1,250 hours during that time to be eligible. Once you provide the necessary notice and documentation, your FMLA leave can begin. It's important to check your employer's policies for any specific procedures they may have in place.
