I went back to work after taking Maternity leave on April 9, 2012. I plan on starting my maternity leave for the new baby on April 15th of this year. Is my base period of pay (for DI payments) going to be from April 2012-December 31st, 2012? Or will it be April 2012-April 2013?
I am trying to navigate the EDD website right now! Ahhhh!

All the EDD paperwork asks your company to verify is your current hourly wage. So it won't matter that you had a maternity leave last year as long as you have put in enough hours to qualify for STD/PFL, and the only wage information they ask for is your current hourly wage (so they won't care about last year's EDD payments). Does that answer your question?

@Honeybee: I don't even know what my question is anymore...I'm confused myself! Lol. I guess my concern is my payments will be a lot lower this time around!
@mrbee: I found that last night. Thanks!

@autumnlove: as long as you qualify for EDD and your current hourly rate is the same or higher than last year, you won't get less money.
