Find out how to save money on your childcare costs

 
What is Tax-Free Childcare (TFC)? 
If you’re a working parent or carer, you can get up to £500 every three months (up to 
£2,000 a year per child) to help with the costs of childcare. For every £8.00 contributed to your Childcare Account, the government will contribute £2.00. Payment towards childcare costs will then be paid directly from your childcare account to your childcare provider – Banana Moon Bromley. 
 
How much could I save? 
For example, if your childcare costs are £750 per month, you would pay £600 into your childcare account and the government would pay in £150. This would be an annual saving of £1800 per child. 
 
If you are eligible for Tax-Free Childcare, you can use it at the same time as: 

Ø  15 hours funding 
Ø  30 hours funding 
 
When you pay into the account, the top up will be applied automatically. 
 
Am I eligible? 
To get Tax-Free Childcare, you need to be working at least 16 hours a week, earning at least the National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage (£152 per week). This includes being:
 
• self-employed 
• on maternity or parental leave 
• on sick leave or annual leave 
 
Your child is eligible until the September after their 11th birthday, or until their 17th birthday if they have a disability. Each parent or carer can earn up to £100,000 per year and still be eligible for Tax-Free Childcare. Your eligibility doesn’t depend on how much tax you pay, so it won’t affect your 
income tax liability or any other tax, like VAT. 
 
You can’t claim Tax-Free Childcare at the same time as: 
Ø  Working Tax Credit 
Ø  Child Tax Credit 
Ø  Universal Credit.
