OSCAR SUBSIDY

 The Oscar subsidy rates are for financial assistance for families with children aged 5 to 13 years.  It helps towards the cost of the out of school care programme up to 20 hours per week and the school holiday programme up to 50 hours per week. 

The subsidy is part of the Working for Families package which is delivered by Work and Income and Inland Revenue in a bid to make it easier to work and raise a family. The subsidy is only available if your child is attending a service that has CYF Approval for OSCAR Services which we are in the process of gaining.

Parents and caregivers can apply for the OSCAR Subsidy if they are in paid work (part time, full time, casual or short term), work night shifts, are training, are doing another work-related activity, are seriously ill or disabled, or have a child with a disability.

The amount of assistance you can get depends on the number of children in your family and the amount of income you receive.
