# Intel Been with Intel for 6 years. Took my 4 week sabbatical in Q4 2018. Currently planning to leave, could you let me know if I am eligible to take personal vacation since I won't be taking sabbatical? Any thoughts?
Not sure if you can cash out anywhere except in CA. But you can use your unused vacation to get paid after your Last day in Office (LDO) till you join your new job. You manager needs to enter LDO and Termination dates different. Only works if you want to take a break between the jobs.
Where are you going OP?
They have to pay you for your unused vacation time when you quit.
Do I have to have a conversation with my manager on this? Or is it automatically calculated by HR
Actually since I don’t know specifically what state you are in, I’ll rephrase that as “most states are required to pay out vacation by state law, but not all. And if you’re in another country I have no idea what is normal”
