Child Care Subsidy: Death of Payee

When the payee of childcare passes away, we must close the childcare case. In FACS, we close the childcare section in eligibility notebook (money bags) using the reason of “Death” and setting the “effective date” for 10 days from today’s date.

We do not close the childcare authorization manually as this will automatically close.

There may be a pop-up box that you receive while saving the case. (see below) It is normal, click “Continue Save”

We do require a new application be submitted if there is a new caretaker for the child to ensure that we have all areas of eligibility for childcare. See article Childcare Household Composition & Income Consideration for more details on how we determine how the new caretaker’s income is to be determined.
