Childcare Subsidy & holidays

On the end of year form I just filled in, it asked if the child had been away for more than three weeks, so they may not worry?

Since they pay it weekly, the same amount would be paid, it may just be picked up at the end of year reconciliation stage.

They will pay for up to 3 weeks.
I just looked into this, as we are going away for 6 weeks soon.
They will pay the subsidy for the first 3 weeks while we are away, but not for the other 3. Which is a bummer, as the centre will charge me the full fee. But well, that's how it is.

Also be careful with any WWF payments. If you don't get paid for 30 hours holiday pay per week, they stop your WFF payments. Which will happen to us, as DH does not get holiday pay, and I only get for 16 hours/week.
This feels very unfair to me, it's not like we're going to live overseas for a while. It's been 3 years since I've been back home, and most of my family has never met DD.

Thanks for all the answers ladies. Even if they will only pay the 50%, I'm fine with that I will ring them to advise as I need to let them know DH has had a payrise, which will drop the subsidy anyway , luckily, we're still up $10 a week after paying the "extra" childcare fees.
Now to find a good time to call.........
