Childcare Voucher Scheme gets six month reprieve

14 Mar 2018

Following a Parliamentary debate and vote on 13 March to keep childcare vouchers open to new entrants beyond April 2018, the Government has announced a six-month extension to the Childcare Voucher scheme

Childcare scheme

It had been reported how the Tax Free Childcare Scheme has been beset with various problems. This six month extension will enable concerns to be raised about this scheme. But it will also give parents a window of opportunity to get into a Childcare Voucher Scheme and additional time to rally your local MP to keep Childcare Vouchers open.

If you have joined KiddiVouchers in the past couple of weeks due to our various news items highlighting the University cut-off of the 16 March, your registration and voucher order will still be acknowledged and processed if received by that date.

If you pay for childcare, you now have additional time to maximise your childcare savings by registering with KiddiVouchers and can make an informed decision on what scheme is best for you and your family.
