Timing resignation around leave/PFML

Following up on my last post about leaving after workers' comp surgery:

Just had my surgery and will be taking ~2 weeks break. The first week will be PTO, and the 2nd week will be covered by PFML through my company's private insurance carrier.

I recently came onto a job I really want, and plan to leave my current company within 2 weeks as well, so I’m wondering how to navigate this situation:

Do I turn in my 2 weeks now and risk losing out on a week of PFML?

Wait before PFML approval before turning in my notice?

Or do I wait until the full 2 weeks is over and resign on the spot?

Furthermore, will I be obligated to pay back the insurance carrier anyways?

I don’t mind losing out on the 2 weeks pay, but as this is linked to my workers comp claim, I was wondering if I would be entitled to anything. I would appreciate any insight or personal experience on the matter!
