Since Jane has been in-between residences because of the whole eviction thing, she didn’t respond. Kyle had then called her to check up on her status and tell her to file the paperwork, because they didn’t actually approve Jane’s initial leave of absence after she lost her son, so she’s been on unapproved leave.
