Benefits

Hi all

I'm wondering how to find out about returning back to work Childcare vouchers? Also if I'm entitled to them, where can I find this out without getting confused! Also what help we get if a single parent - does childcare fall under main carer responsibility to solely pay for it? Is there anything to help?
Thanks in advance

Hi, childcare vouchers closed to all new parents quite a few years ago now so you will be unable to sign up for them. The government introduced there own version Tax free childcare so for every 80% you pay they top on the extra 20% . (There is a limit )If you go to childcare choices it will tell you all about it. You may be entitled to childcare help if entitled to universal credits but there is no government help with childcare fees until they are 3 or 2 and in receipt of certain benefits.
