Tax free Childcare

Sep 27, 2019 | Business, HMRC, Tax

Tax free childcare replaced the old voucher system in October 2018. Now if you have children under 12, you apply direct to HMRC rather than through your employer, to receive for free up to 20 % of your childcare costs up to £2,000. To check your entitlement please visit www.tax-service.gov.uk/childcare-calc.
