Child care subsidy

[squawkIFR]

Not sure if they do but faa does provide a subsidy program for childcare which has been a huge help for me! Covers 70% of childcare cost while your at AG pay. Then goes down to 45% then 30% all depending on salary. Being at a level 12 going from AG to D1 and then d2 just a few months later it’s baically lost at that point but it’s definitely a great program I’d recommend taking an advantage of. Having 2 kids, for almost a whole year I was paying $800 vs $2500 per month for full time care at a really nice school. That’s $20k that faa subsidy paid.

How do you go about using this benefit?

Thank you

It’s a little time consuming but not as bad as it seems and once you get it all situated with the school etc you’re good for a year.

So I'm assuming it isn't dependent upon your entry into the FAA and solely based on your rank; like I won't get 45% that AG's do because I entered on a prior-experience bid, starting at D3 at my facility.

Just curious. I couldn't afford childcare out here anyways, being at a level 5 in Los Angeles. These taxes out here are absolutely ridiculous.

Yep unfortunately it all depends on your household income. But I can imagine! Childcare is crazy expensive!
