Services SA Information on Childcare Subsidy & CaFHS

At the end of each financial year, Services Australia reconciles Child Care Subsidy (CCS) payments to ensure families receive the correct amount of assistance for the year. 

Families are required to confirm their 2020-21 income by 30 June 2022 to allow Services Australia to complete balancing and to avoid losing CCS.

Any families yet to confirm 2019-20 income are required to do so by the 30 June 2022 deadline to avoid losing CCS eligibility and having to pay back subsidy received during this time. Families can confirm their income by lodging their tax return or by telling Services Australia that they don’t need to lodge a tax return.
