To file for FMLA for depression, you must make sure that you work for a covered employer and have a note from your physician that shows that you are unable to work due to depression. The first step when you go to file for FMLA is confirming that you are eligible for FMLA leave, which means you must ensure that your employer is a covered employer.
Under current FMLA laws, a chronic condition, whether physical or mental, that may cause occasional periods when an individual is unable to work is a qualifying serious health condition. This is confirmed if it requires treatment by a healthcare provider at least twice a year and recurs over a period of time.
If you are experiencing depression and it is making it unable for you to work, you may take FMLA leave. Be sure to get a note from your healthcare provider to use when completing the forms through the FMLA website and you should be able to fill out everything and take off that necessary time.
