New Zealand's FamilyBoost program has paid $24M to over 22,000 families for childcare in 2023.
New Zealand's Finance Minister, Nicola Willis, announced that nearly 22,000 claims under the FamilyBoost program were paid in the first 15 days of 2023. FamilyBoost supports low and middle-income families with early childhood education costs, allowing those earning up to $180,000 annually to claim 25% of weekly childcare fees, up to $975 every three months. Over $24 million has been paid out since the program began, with families able to register through the Inland Revenue's online system, myIR.
