Bonding leave involves more deadlines than any other type of leave. State disability, paid family leave, and insurance enrollment all have separate filing windows that start the moment your child arrives. Missing even one of them can cost you thousands of dollars or leave your newborn without health coverage. This guide makes sure nothing falls through the cracks.
