Childcare benefit depends on the childcare provider and the parents’ circumstances.
The childcare organisation must be registered, and parents normally need to meet work, study, integration or other qualifying conditions. Income and childcare hours affect the amount.
Check both parents
Where there are two parents, the work or qualifying-activity conditions generally apply to both, subject to official exceptions.
Apply accurately
Use the correct contract hours, hourly rate, start date and household income estimate. Update changes promptly to reduce repayment risk.
