Hello all, my first post here so I hope I am using the correct category. My apologies if this has been asked before.

I am on LCWRA and my partner works, are we entitled to the 30 hours funded childcare? I am struggling to apply on the government website. I have read so many differing answers and would love a clear answer to this question.

Thank you all for your time.

    Hi @baumaus, welcome to the community.

    Yes, you should still be eligible for 30 hours of childcare providing you and your partner meet the other eligibility requirements. LCWRA would be one of the qualifying benefits that may mean you are still eligible even if you're not working.
