Municipality of Goeree-Overflakkee: applying for an allowance for own contribution to childcare costs

Childcare allowance is a (partial) reimbursement for the costs of childcare. For example, if your children go to a daycare center, playgroup, before and after school care (VSO and BSO) or childminder.

Description

You can apply for the supplement if:

  • you and your partner work during the day
  • you are following a course
  • you receive benefits and follow a reintegration process

The amount of benefit you receive depends on your income, the number of children and the type of childcare. You can make a test calculation (link is external) yourself at the Tax Authorities to see how much childcare allowance you can receive.

You can receive the supplement for the following types of childcare:

  • Day care in a crèche or nursery.
  • Before and after school care for children aged 4 to 12 years.
  • childminder care. You can only receive an allowance for a childminder who is registered with a registered childminder agency.
  • Parent participation crèches where a group of parents takes turns looking after their own children.
  • Own babysitter. The babysitter is registered as a childminder and you pay the babysitter white. You can arrange this through a childminder agency.
  • Preschool for children from 2.5 to 4 years.

You can apply for the childcare allowance via My Allowances (link is external). For this you need a DigiD login code. You can also request the application form from the tax authorities.

The following documents are requested:

  • Proof of your income and that of your partner
  • Cost statement of the childcare organization
  • If you are in debt, please include documents proving it

You will be notified within 8 weeks whether you will receive a childcare allowance..

If you do not agree with the decision, you can object within 6 weeks.
