To replace the BC Child Care Subsidy Program, the BC Government offers assistance for families that require daycare.
Parents must provide one of the following reasons for requiring child care:
-
Working or self-employed
-
Attending school
-
Participating in an employment program
-
Looking for work (only one parent or guardian)
-
Living with a medical condition that interferes with your ability to care for your child
-
Your child is attending licensed preschool
-
You have been referred by a Ministry of Children and Family Development or Delegated Aboriginal Agency social worker.
Generally speaking, families that earn up to $111,000 may qualify for funding. Families that earn more than $111,000, but have considerable deductions for family size or children who have special needs, can also apply.
