    I qualified for both my DS's. I was working part time and DH full time. I did it as BG has explained. It didn't actually take too long. Pretty sure it was within a few weeks.
    I did mine at the end of 2nd term then at the end of final term.
    I rang the council and asked for an itemised statement to claim through Family Assistance and they posted it out to me. The form you fill in is long which is another reason I only did it twice
    You have to wait until the end of each term as it's paid on attendance from memory, as in they key in each date your child attends and you get a portion of each session back.

    yes, the receipt/statement you provide has each week of the term, the number of hours used, the amount paid. all of this has to be individually input and then it processes an amount from that. if you send in a statement and it's received before the end of the last week listed, you won't get paid for that week kwim?
