Q: If I retire at the beginning of January before the end of the current leave year, could I receive payment for 568 hours of unused annual leave — maximum carryover of 360 hours of unused annual leave from the previous year, plus my 208 hours of unused annual leave in the current year. I am allowed to carry over a maximum of 360 hours of accumulated annual leave from one leave year to the next.
A: Yes, you can. However, you’d have to retire no later than Jan. 1, 2011, which is the end of the current leave year.
