Placement Solutions is a Fully Approved Childcare Service - instead of merely being a Registered Service.
ATO AND CHILD CARE REBATES APPLY TO IN-HOME CARE CLIENTS
There has been considerable press coverage of the Nanny sector of the childcare industry since the release of the recommendations of the Steering Committee chaired by Senator Bronwyn Bishop .Most of this coverage has arisen in the debate about Nannies not being generally eligible for approved childcare rebates. In other words parents receiving $22.00 per child instead of the possible rebate of $144.00 per child. This situation applies to non-approved Nanny agencies and nannies hired directly by clients.
We stress that if you are eligible for In-home care then you are eligible for in-home care rebates right now.
As of July 2007 these vary from $4.94 per child per hour to the minimum of $0.89c per child per hour. You are also eligible for the ATO tax rebate of $7500.00 per child as of July 2006 providing you are linked with us. All those eligible for Family Assistance from the Federal Australian Government under the revised guidelines effective on 1/7/2000 are able to claim the rebate through this Agency.
We state again we are an approved not just a registered childcare service.
Please quote our CRN or Customer Reference Number when calling the Family Assistance Office. Our CRN is 406 961 045 H. Please contact us to clarify further or call Family Assistance to check your eligibility on 131650.
The Federal Government have also announced a package for families in exceptional circumstances. Extra government assistance may be available to those families. Please see the government web site http://www.facs.gov.au for further information.
Childcare Benefit is applicable only for the childcare component. |
