BSA Changes | What You Need To Know

The Fiscal Year 2027 Budget Support Act (BSA) changed the DC Paid Family Leave program. The changes took effect October 1, 2026. Join the DC Office of Paid Family Leave for a free webinar that explains what changed and what it means for you.

We will cover:

• Updated maximum weeks for Medical Leave (now up to 10 weeks) and Family Caregiving Leave (now up to 6 weeks)
• The Weekly Benefit Maximum of $1,100
• What did not change, including Parental Leave, Prenatal Leave, and employer contribution rates
• How the application submission date determines which leave duration rules apply
• Where to find resources and get help

This session is open to workers, employers, HR teams, third-party administrators, and community partners. There will be time for questions.

Sessions: Mondays, October 26, November 16, and December 7, 2026
