揭开安省有史以来最灵活的儿童保育计划之一
随着越来越多的父母寻求儿童保育计划的选择方案，安省保守党政府正在通过提出新的安省儿童保育准入和托儿支出税收抵免来帮助保护父母的托儿事宜。
财政部长Vic Fedeli和教育部长Lisa Thompson解释了新托儿税收抵免将如何尊重父母在决定什么对孩子最有利时的选择方案。
这笔补助款将为约300,000个家庭提供高达75％的合资格儿童保育费用支出，并帮助家庭获得广泛的托儿服务，包括政府托儿中心，家庭日托和营地托儿机构。
“托儿税收抵免将成为安省有史以来最灵活的儿童保育计划之一。这是一项将父母而非政府置于儿童保育决策过程为中心的计划，”Fedeli说。 “我们希望家长能够灵活选择最适合孩子的护理方式，以便他们可以去上班，经营生意或继续深造以获得新技能。”
从2021年纳税年开始，安省将让家庭选择在年内通过快速获得定期预付款申请的支持。这笔款项将允许父母抵消他们在开始新工作，延长工作时间或返回学校时可能产生的儿童保育费用。托儿税收抵免将在现有的儿童保育费用扣除（CCED）基础之上，将重点放在低收入和中等收入家庭。
新的政策包括：
·每个7岁以下儿童最多可获得6,000加元，7至16岁之间每名儿童最多可获得3,750加元，每名严重残疾儿童最多可获得8,250加元。
·政府承诺在未来五年内拨款高达10亿加元，在学校内建立多达30,000个托儿所，其中包括2019年安省预算中新学校的约10,000个学位。
安省教育厅长汤普森说：“今天的公告将使安省家庭的托儿服务更便宜，更容易获得。” “我们的改变将确保父母的可选择性和灵活性，帮助安省的每一位育儿家庭做出最好托儿决定。”

CARE to Help Ontario Parents Find and Afford the Best Care for Their Kids
Unveiling One of the Most Flexible Child Care Initiatives Ever in the Province
April 12, 2019 11:26 A.M.
Ministry of Finance
With more parents looking for choice in child care, Ontario's Government is helping to protect what matters most by proposing the new Ontario Childcare Access and Relief from Expenses (CARE) tax credit.
Vic Fedeli, Minister of Finance, and Lisa Thompson, Minister of Education, explained how the new CARE tax credit will respect the choices of parents in deciding what's best for their kids.
The credit would provide about 300,000 families with up to 75 per cent of their eligible child care expenses, and allow families to access a broad range of child care options, including care in centres, homes and camps.
"The CARE tax credit would be one of the most flexible child care initiatives ever introduced in Ontario. It is a plan to put parents, and not the government, at the centre of the child care decision-making process," said Fedeli. "We want parents to be able to choose the kind of care that is best for their children so that they can go to work, run a business, or study to acquire new skills."
Beginning in the 2021 tax-year, Ontario would give families the choice to apply for and receive more timely support through regular advance payments during the year. This credit will allow parents to offset child care expenses they may incur when starting a new job, taking on longer hours, or going back to school.
The CARE tax credit would be on top of the existing Child Care Expense Deduction (CCED) and focus benefits on low- and middle-income families. Families could receive up to $6,000 per child under seven years of age, up to $3,750 per child between the ages of seven and 16, and up to $8,250 per child with a severe disability.
The government has also committed up to $1 billion over the next five years to create up to 30,000 child care spaces in schools, including approximately 10,000 spaces in new schools in the2019 Ontario Budget.
"Today's announcement will make child care for Ontario families more affordable and more accessible," said Thompson. "Our changes will ensure parents have the choice and flexibility to make the best decisions for their family."
Quick Facts
·The CARE tax credit would support families with incomes of up to $150,000.
·The CARE tax credit would be available in addition to the CCED, which provides provincial and federal tax relief toward eligible child care expenses.
·The CCED provides greater tax relief, on average, to higher-income families as a percentage of their expenses. In contrast, the CARE tax credit would provide a higher credit rate to families with lower incomes, filling the gap in support for these families. Lower-income families who would benefit include those joining the workforce or deciding to work more hours.
·Families would be able to claim the CARE tax credit, starting with the 2019 tax year, and would not have to gather any additional information when filing their tax returns.
·Parents would need to keep receipts for the child care expenses they incur.
·The CARE tax credit builds on Ontario’s commitment to help low-income workers through the Low-income Individuals and Families Tax (LIFT) Credit, which provides low-income workers, including those making minimum wage, up to $850 ($1,700 for couples) in tax relief.
