California offers two state programs for residents: the State Disability Insurance (SDI) and Paid Family Leave (PFL). Both function in a similar manner, allowing qualifying Californians to take time off work and receive partial wage replacement in specific circumstances. SDI includes Disability Insurance (DI) and Paid Family Leave (PFL) benefits. It also encompasses Nonindustrial Disability Insurance (NDI with two separate components: NDI and NDI-FCL.

SDI offers short-term benefits to eligible workers who suffer a loss of wages when they’re unable to work due to a nonwork-related illness, injury, or pregnancy. Someone may be eligible for DI if they are unable to work due to being ill, injured, or pregnant. Meanwhile, PFL provides benefits to workers who need time off work to care for a seriously ill family member or to bond with a new child.

Getting a hold of these benefits and contacting respective offices can sometimes be confusing and busy. If you need to contact SDI, you can do so via the EDD SDI Office using online services or calling the SDI representatives. For Paid Family Leave, the same applies using the PFL line.
