UWA Employees' Child Care Centre, Monash Ave, Nedlands
After School/Vacation Care Centre, 18 Parkway, Crawley

Child Care Benefit is not affected by salary packaging but the whole package must be declared
to CentreLink. Only the portion of the fees that you personally must pay will be packaged.
Please enter your fortnightly child care fees

your FBT liability as any contribution that you make post tax reduces the FBT
liability. Please enter the amount per fortnight you wish to contribute.
*You can only use your insurance costs to offset FBT if you have personally paid the
