Eligibility Requirements/Restrictions
To be eligible for financial assistance, families must meet specific income limits and work requirements. Previously, the income limit for childcare assistance was 85% of the State Median Income. The Department of Workforce Services has not yet released the temporary income limit for childcare assistance but has indicated that they intend to raise the income limit.
Parents must also meet work requirements. In a single-parent household, the parent must work at least 15 hours per week; in a two-parent household, one parent must work a minimum of 15 hours per week and the second parent must work a minimum of 30 hours a week; and self-employed parents must be self-employed for at least three months. Your children need to be under age 13 (or under age 18 if the child has special needs).
