Child Care Subsidy, often called CCS, is an Australian Government subsidy that helps reduce the cost of approved child care.<\/p>\n

If your family is eligible, CCS is paid directly to your child care provider. This means you usually do not pay the full daily fee. You pay the remaining amount, often called the gap fee or out-of-pocket cost.<\/p>\n

This guide explains how CCS works, what affects your out-of-pocket cost, and how to apply through myGov and Centrelink.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n
