Fees
Your family’s combined income will calculate the CCS percentage you are entitled to.
Under the CCS system, you will only be able to access the Child Care Subsidy if you are doing suitable activity and the amount of activity will then determine how many hours of Childcare Subsidy you are eligible for. CCS is linked to how much a family contributes to the Australian economy through activity. This activity level is calculated from the parent with the lowest number of hours of activity.
What you need to do
- Sign into your Centrelink online account through myGov
- Select Complete your Child Care Subsidy assessment task.
- Work through the steps to provide information and confirm your current details.
