Final call for employer childcare schemes

If you?re a director or employee you only have a few weeks to join your employer?s childcare voucher scheme and take advantage of up to ?55 per week tax and NI free. To meet the deadline you must receive a childcare voucher by 5 April 2018. You will then qualify to remain in the scheme and continue to receive tax and NI-free vouchers until you stop being eligible.

Tax-free alternative.?Depending on your income, how many children you have and their ages it might pay you to switch from your employer childcare voucher scheme to HMRC?s relatively new Tax-Free Childcare.
