The New Jersey Family Leave Act (NJFLA) entitles eligible employees to take unpaid, job-protected leave for certain family and medical reasons. The NJFLA applies to employers with at least 30 employees. Employees are eligible for NJFLA leave if they have worked for their employer for at least 12 months and have worked at least 1,000 hours during the 12 months preceding the leave.

To apply for NJFLA leave, employees must provide their employer with written notice of their intent to take leave at least 30 days before the leave is to begin. The notice must include the reason for the leave, the expected start and end dates of the leave, and a statement that the employee intends to return to work at the end of the leave period. Employers may request medical certification to support the need for leave.

Indefinite leave to remain (ILR) is a type of immigration status in the United Kingdom that allows a person to live and work in the country without any time restrictions. It is also known as permanent residence. ILR is typically granted to individuals who have been living in the UK for a certain period of time, usually five years, and who meet certain other requirements, such as having a job or being married to a British citizen. There are a number of benefits to obtaining ILR, including the right to live and work in the UK indefinitely, the right to access public funds, and the right to apply for British citizenship.

The process of applying for ILR can be complex and time-consuming. It is important to seek professional advice from an immigration lawyer before submitting an application. The application process typically involves submitting a number of documents, including a passport, proof of income, and proof of residency. The applicant will also need to attend an interview with an immigration officer. If the application is successful, the applicant will be granted ILR and will be issued a biometric residence card.
