The Government Subsidy
Child Care Benefit (CCB) and Child Care Rebate (CCR) are available for eligible families as The Australian Government provides families with two types of financial assistance to help cover the costs of approved child care – the Child Care Benefit and the Child Care Rebate.
It is important to remember that while Child Care Benefit is based on family income, the Child Care Rebate is not income tested.
Both subsidies are managed by the Department of Human Services (DHS). In order to receive either subsidy you will be required to register your family’s details with the DHS.
​
