Assistance with childcare costs - Childcare vouchers / Tax-Free Childcare Scheme Sample Clauses

Assistance with childcare costs - Childcare vouchers / Tax-Free Childcare Scheme. The Government closed the Childcare Vouchers scheme to new entrants in 2018 and so employees are no longer able to join the Edenred scheme. Existing members will continue to receive childcare vouchers as they do now as long as their child remains eligible*, they stay with the same employer, and they have had a salary sacrifice adjustment to their pay and received vouchers within any 12-month period. For existing members of the Edenred scheme, information on the scheme can be found on xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xx.xx in the parent section or by contacting the Edenred helpdesk by calling 0000 000 0000. For new parents, or parents who did not join the voucher scheme, the government offer a form of childcare funding support for working parents, called Tax-Free Childcare (TFC). Tax-free childcare gives eligible families up to £2,000 free per child towards childcare costs. Tax-free childcare is a Government-backed scheme which helps parents with the cost of childcare. The scheme gives eligible families an extra 20% towards childcare costs. The scheme's available to parents of children up to and including the age of 11 (or until they turn 17 if you've children with disabilities). Some people who are currently receiving childcare vouchers might be better off claiming tax-free childcare instead. If you're thinking of switching, it's important you see how much you'd get which each scheme before switching, as you can't go back to vouchers once you've moved over to tax-free childcare. To find out more about which option is best for your own circumstances, there is a useful document on the Edenred website: ‘A parent’s guide to childcare vouchers and tax-free childcare’.
