Child-Care Benefit allowance is available to all eligible parents. Our priority of access is in accordance with their guidelines. Fees are charged for the full 48 weeks. Should you wish to apply for Child Care Benefit, then an application must be made at the Family Assistance Office prior to your child commencing pre-school. Full fees must be paid until the assessment notice is received at the pre-school.

This rebate is not income tested, and will be paid quarterly or as an annual lump sum.
The Child Care Tax Rebate is designed to help families to meet their out-of-pocket child care costs.
