2. Obtain the necessary forms from your employer or the Department of Labor's website. These forms typically include the FMLA Medical Certification form, which needs to be completed by you and your healthcare provider, and the FMLA Request form, which you need to fill out to initiate the leave.
3. Complete the FMLA Request form accurately and provide all the required information, including your name, employee ID, contact details, desired dates for leave, and the reason for needing FMLA coverage. Be sure to sign and date the form.

7. Once your request is approved, make arrangements to cover your workload during your absence. Communicate your leave dates and any necessary information to your supervisor and colleagues.
