Can both parents claim...

[rockinmum]

Hiya

Anyone know whether both parents can claim Childcare Vouchers? Or is it just one?

Also, if we claim the full £55 a week from them does it cost us £55 a wek as well? Really can't make head nor tale of it. lol

Ta

yes - you can both claim.

it will cost you £55 if you claim £55 but it is taken off before tax & ni so you don't pay so much on your pay iyswim.

Both parents can claim the vouchers. It comes out of your pay before tax and NI, so you see less come off your actual pay you get than 55 quid

Ahhh thanks, all seems clear now lol.

Trying to work out whether it's worth it money wise to go back to work! lol
