Swans Nest – Universal Credit Fees Assistance
If you are in receipt of Universal Credit, you may be eligible to have up to 85% of your childcare costs paid for. Most people pay in advance and then claim the costs back, however if you are just starting work or increasing your working hours, you may be able to claim up front. This can significantly help with costs as those in receipt of Universal Credit cannot use the tax-free childcare scheme.
The maximum monthly amount is £1,031.88 for one child and £1,768.94 for 2 or more children.
In order to qualify for this, you will need to apply via your Universal Credit account. Note – if you live with a partner you both need to be working, unless your partner cannot look after your children.
You simply need the following information:-
Name, Registration Number, Address and phone number – so for Swans Nest the details are:-
Sturton by Stow Primary School; School Lane, Sturton by Stow, LN1 2BY. Tel No 01427 788210. Registration Number 120478
Universal Credit may also ask to see proof of payment together with any dates of childcare paid for, how much you paid and the date the payment was made.
It is easier to download invoices from the Arbor website, however you can also access invoices from within the Arbor app. Once you have logged in, just select the three lines at the bottom left of the application. Click on “Payments” and then “Invoices.”
If you need any further assistance, contact the school office.
