Still think its just the $310.00 once, no matter how many children or if they are going to different places. Doesn't really make any sense to me. Would love to hear if anyone has received more if they had more than one child at childcare. ]]> Mon, 24 Mar 2008 19:29:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333708&title=childcare-rebate#333708 <![CDATA[Childcare rebate : Maya wrote:What if I have them...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333554&title=childcare-rebate#333554 Author: nikkitheknitter

I'm pretty sure that's fine... you just need receipts from both sources.]]> Mon, 24 Mar 2008 16:26:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333554&title=childcare-rebate#333554 <![CDATA[Childcare rebate : linda wrote:$310.00 is great...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333227&title=childcare-rebate#333227 Author: Paws

I know what you mean! We pay around $12k in childcare too so even if we each get $310 back it's nothing! Not that I'll be complaining at getting $600 back of course. ]]> Mon, 24 Mar 2008 06:18:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333227&title=childcare-rebate#333227 <![CDATA[Childcare rebate : What if I have them in separate...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10085&PID=333193&title=childcare-rebate#333193 Author: Maya

not sure about that, all the daycare will write is the amount recieved for her fees for the year, i suppose they could do 2, one in each of your names but would basically halve the amount they have recieved for the year on each tax reciept IYGWIM lol. either way it would probably end up being the same amount you would recieve back. I think.... lol

and i dont know how they calculate the amount the government will rebate you. I just know it from the daycare side of things

I just got a lovely $620.00 put in my account by IRD for the Childcare rebate.

You can apply for this rebate if you are earning taxable income and pay over $900 and something per year for childcare. (Which isn't hard with the price of childcare!)

The rebate is a set amount $310... but you can apply for previous years if you have not done so already.

All I had to do was fill in the form and get a receipt printed out from my creche showing the amount I had paid over the year and voila! Lots of money!

Go read the details here and get the IRD 526 form.

I love my workmate who told me about this!!!
