My wife works as a Technical Program Officer at USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance. She is an independent contractor.

, with no clarity whether they’ll be able to return.

* Resolves YES if she involuntarily no longer holds a position working at a USAID or subsequent entity like the State Department that had subsumed her prior role. Resolves NO if she remains employed doing the same job or a natural extension/evolution of her current role (like at the State Department) prior to April, is put on leave but with her contract intact or a new contract put in place prior to April, or if she decides to leave her current job voluntarily prior to market end date.
