CCB and CCR at two 'centres'

just wondering if i can claimn CCB and CCR across two centres? DD1 will be going to c&k and day care next year? so is it one or the other or can i get both? i will be only doing 16 hours work per week if that makes a difference?

You can claim at both, but you need to make sure you don't exceed your allowed hours. So if you qualify for 50 hours of care and the centre charges a 12 hour day, you could safely use 2 days at two different centres. You should advise the centres that your child is at another centre and the hours you are using there to avoid ever using too much and getting a bill.

hmmm.. i think from memory i only get 25hours or something like that. how do you get your hours increased?

if you are currently working less than 15 hours, you'd only be entitled to 24hours subsidised care (and CCR for 24 hours) per week. if you have recently increased to the 16 hours, let FAO know and it can be increased to the 50hours limit. if you are going to be increasing in future, just let FAO know the friday before or something

thanks for the replies. i checked and i actually do get 50hours so it should be all good. by the way does anyone know when the next CCR is due?

Processing started today (i believe) and will be paid over the two weeks from Wednesday this week

thanks Bg you are a wealth of knowledge! :-)

you could say it like that (i tend to think of myself as a repository for useless information lol)
