Daycare assistance program

[srobinson3524]

If a government assistance program paid for most of my childcare since my low income qualified us, do I need to claim those payments made to the provider as additional income on my taxes?

No, you don’t have to report those payments. But you can’t use that amount to claim child care credit.

Thank you so much!
