Applying for tax-free childcare
You can apply both for 30 hours of free childcare for 3 and 4 year-olds and tax-free childcare in the same place through a single application.
To apply for 30 hours free childcare for 3 and 4 year-olds, and for tax-free childcare, go to HM Government: Childcare Choices.
Re-applying every 3 months
After you start receiving your tax-free childcare, you will get an email or text message from the government every 3 months, asking you to re-apply.
