    child care rebate

    My twins will be attending full time daycare when I attend university. My course starts in early March, but their childcare place can only be held until the 2nd week in February. My question is, am I still entitled to the 50% rebate for being a full time student if I haven't started the course yet? I will have enrolled by then.

    Thanks

    I "think" you would be as you are enrolled in your course but I would definitely check with centrelink

    Thanks, that was what I was hoping. I will check with centrelink but I can't get through atm, just trying to organise my budget.

    HI T

    yes you absolutely would be. The criteria is study/work obligations and you would meet that.
