<prompt> Human: Hello All,Just wondering about this both myself and my SO have been paying into SDI in California on paychecks automatically, being that were both W2. I know that California offers SDI for delivery 4 weeks before delivery and 6 weeks Paid Family Leave at 55 of your weekly salary. PFL is also offered for fathers, I would love to be able to have this income during the first six weeks so I can supplement my SOs 45 lost income for those 6 weeks if he chooses to take it. Am I able to have my paid maternity leave in addition to PFL concurrently?  <response>: I think a lot of people would also love to have that extra income but that isnt really what it is for. Im pretty sure those benefits are for people who dont get paidare unable to make income during their pregnancy, not for those who wish to double dip into the system. I think part of having a baby include financial planning to cover these things. SDI is a form of insurance.
