calNgary 8,548 Posted November 24, 2017 The child care rebate and child care benefit will be replaced by the new child care package making child care more affordable to families, even those families on a higher income will now be elgible.. The changes will start in July 2018 and will cover all kids under High School age (13 years). I had a quick play on the calcualtor and a joint income of $100k would give a rebate of approx 73% More detailed info can be found here https://www.education.gov.au/ChildCarePackage 3 If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place... If you get a chance,take it, If it changes your life,let it. Nobody said it would be easy they just said it would be worth it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
