early child care supplement

can anyone tell me you know the payment you get 250 each 3mths for a child under 6

did that already come last tueday and was their a big amount taken away from it due to the government cuts

Afaik it comes in april july, october and december. It had gone up one hundred euro a year, but that is whats been cut by the government, so it is again 250. Paid till they are 5.

The payment has been reduced to 1000 per child per year and we are getting it paid monthly no rather than every three months so thats why you received a smaller payment.

And payment now ends when they reach 5.

I did not know this was monthly now. Was that the first month, or was jan?

Well I didn't receive anything in January and received 92 Euro in Feb so I am assuming they have divided the 1000 Euro by 11 and thats what we will receive until the end of the year. Next year will prob get 83 Euro a month.

glezo

so its every month now right throughout the year,

i got a huge shock last week and i have 2 children so i normally get 500 but i only got 184 this month
