Child Care
We’re asking this
question to help figure out the benefits you may be able to get.
Child care is money you pay to someone else to take care of your children
while you work or look for work.
If a state agency, non-profit agency or someone who lives outside your
home pays child care costs for children in your home, please don’t count
their part of the payment. If no one pays for child care, just leave the
amount at zero.
Child Support
We’re asking this
question because the child support paid by adults in your home may affect
your benefits.
Child support is money that you provide for your children
who don’t live with you.
If your child support payments are taken out of your paycheck, tell us
how much is taken out of your check each month.
Keep in mind that we’re asking about child support that the adults in your
home pay, NOT child support that you or your children receive from someone
outside of your home.
