Hi,

I am very fortunate I receive 14 weeks paid maternity leave from my employer. This will begin before I have my baby as planning on leaving around 35 weeks pregnant.

I have worked out it is better for me to receive (at least a bit of it) the Government Paid Parental Leave in this financial year (not the next as I will be eligible for more FTA&B).

So can I get both paid at the same time? I realise the PPL only begins AFTER the birth of bubs, but to have them overlapping for a month or 2 would be good.
