From July 2023, if your family earns under $530,000, you’ll get increased Child Care Subsidy. The CCS percentage you’re entitled to depends on your family’s income.

The income limit to get the maximum CCS is increasing. Families earning up to $80,000 will get an increased maximum CCS amount, from 85% to 90%.

If you already get CCS, you don’t need to do anything to get the increased rate. We’ll apply changes to your CCS automatically.

Fees must be paid regardless of attendance e.g. sickness or family holidays, as the Centre must continue to be fully staffed.
