I received a layoff notice on 6/16/09. I have been on intermittent FMLA to care for my mother after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's almost one year ago. I have also gone through other personal family issues and have been diagnosed with severe anxiety / moderate depresstion (2 weeks prior to receiving layoff notice). I have been put on a medical LOA due to layoff compounding the above. My employer, one week after receiving the layoff notice, sent me an FMLA packet to have completed for my medical leave. I want to be sure that completing this documentation is not going to jeopardize any legal claims I make against my employer in the future.
Please help, and thanks!
