SELF EMPLOYED SICK LEAVE

My husband is a sole proprietor of a business in PA.  We calculated the days the quarantine stay at home orders were in place and input accordingly as they applied to him.  Noted I am not working due to SSDI.

 

However, the TT program also asks if you were caring for someone whose physician told them to quarantine (due to increased danger of contracting COVID).

 

So, for example purposes, let's say we calculated 10 days for the quarantine order for his business.

 

Do we also enter 10 days below that due to that fact that he was caring for someone that was quarantining because they have a medical condition?

 

Is it 10 days in totality?

or do we enter 10 twice, thereby making it 20?

 

Not sure if you can have your cake and eat it too, for lack of another way to explain?

 

Thanks for any help!!

As most would conclude the days would be the same 10 days of quarantine,  you should limit your claim to 10 days.
