The puzzle

Three programs. One confusing puzzle.

Your real leave is all three of these stacked together in the right order. We keep the sequence clear, flag the deadlines, and show the parts that need extra care before they become a problem.

DBLDisability Benefits

Replaces income while you recover from childbirth — about 6–8 weeks.

How we protect you: We surface the $170/week cap early, so the lean recovery weeks are not a surprise.

How we protect you: We tell you which carrier gets the forms and when, before a missed deadline costs time.

What this is

A self-help plan you can check yourself

LeavePlan NY is a self-help planning tool for New York parents who need a fast, checkable plan before HR forms and carrier deadlines start moving.

Official citations

Self-help planning tool. Not legal advice; not affiliated with NYS WCB or NY Paid Family Leave. We are not a government agency, law firm, carrier, or HR department. The full plan and forms are self-prepared drafts for review before filing.

Why parents trust us

Calm, careful, and on your side.

LeavePlan NY is built to be the one source you can rely on — accurate to the latest rules, private by default, and risk-free to try.

Built on verified 2026 NY rules

Every paid week and benefit figure is checked against primary New York State and federal sources — paidfamilyleave.ny.gov, wcb.ny.gov, and dol.gov — for the current benefit year.

How we protect your privacy

No documents, no medical records, and no account required for the preview. We ask only for what's needed to map your plan.

7-day money-back guarantee

See your personalized preview for free. If the full plan isn't useful, email us within 7 days for a complete refund — no hoops.

Built around your due date

Every milestone, deadline, and benefit estimate is mapped to your timeline and situation — not generic averages.

Why you can trust it

Every number, traced to its New York State source.

LeavePlan NY is new, so we won't pretend to have a wall of five-star quotes. Here's what actually stands behind your plan.

Primary sources, not opinions
Every number comes straight from New York State — the Workers' Compensation Board and Paid Family Leave — and the federal Department of Labor, verified for the 2026 benefit year.
A deterministic engine, not a chatbot
Your plan is computed from the published rates — the $1,833.63 State Average Weekly Wage, the PFL and DBL caps, the 26-week combined ceiling — so the math is identical every time, never a guess.
Updated when the law changes
We re-verify against the State's figures each benefit year, so your plan never goes stale the way last year's PDF or a generic AI answer does.
Built to be checked
We show the exact forms and where every benefit figure comes from — so you, or your employer's insurance carrier, can verify each line yourself.

When real New York parents leave reviews — with their names and permission — they'll appear here. Until then, the work speaks.

Official sources

Here is where every number comes from.

Your plan uses your pay and date. The figures below are statewide maximums and rule limits from official 2026 sources, not a promise that every parent receives the maximum.
