Understanding the balancing of Child Care Subsidy |
The following information on Child Care Subsidy balancing has been provided to assist you in understanding the process. Centrelink is balancing families' Child Care Subsidy (CCS) entitlements. If you have any questions visit www.humanservices.gov.au/balancing. There is more information on the Centrelink website to help understand the balancing process. Throughout the year, Centrelink pays your Child Care Subsidy (CCS) based on the details you’ve given them. At the end of the financial year, they balance your CCS to make sure you received the right amount. Centrelink is balancing CCS for the 2018–19 financial year. Your CCS won’t be balanced straightaway. It can take some time. Here’s how Centrelink gets to your outcome.
1. You confirm your income You need to confirm your family’s income for the 2018–19 financial year before Centrelink can balance your CCS.

Centrelink withholds 5% of your weekly CCS during the year as a default. If you were paid too much CCS at any time during the year, Centrelink will also factor that in. This may happen if you had a change in your family’s circumstances or if your family income estimate was lower than your actual income.
3. Centrelink tells you your outcome Once Centrelink has considered all of these factors, they send you a letter with your outcome. The letter will outline how they’ve worked out your outcome.
There are three possible outcomes:
