Changing your child’s care arrangements

If the amount of time you care or share the care for a child changes, this may affect your payments and services.

It’s important to tell us if your child’s care or shared care arrangements change so you’re paid the right amount. You may need to do this for any of the following:

  • you get an income support payment
  • you get Family Tax Benefit
  • you get Child Care Subsidy
  • you pay or receive child support or spousal maintenance.
