84AAA  Amount of the child care rebate—for a week

  If the Secretary calculates, under section 65EAAA of the Family Assistance Administration Act, the amount of child care rebate applicable in respect of an individual and a child for care provided for the child by an approved child care service in a week, the amount is worked out as follows:

      Method statement
           Step 1. Work out the total amount of the individual's approved child care fees for care provided for the child by the approved child care service in the week.
           Step 2. Work out the total amount (if any) of so much of the fee reductions:

                (a) calculated under subsection 50Z(1) of the Family Assistance Administration Act; or
                (b) recalculated under subsection 50ZA(1) of that Act;

            in respect of the individual and the child as are attributable to the care provided for the child by the approved child care service in the week.
           Step 3. Work out the total amount of Jobs Education and Training (JET) Child Care fee assistance (if any) that the individual is eligible to receive for the child that is attributable to the care provided for the child by the approved child care service in the week.
           Step 4. Work out the lesser of the following amounts for the child:

                (a) the amount worked out using the formula:

                (b) the amount worked out by subtracting from the child care rebate limit for the income year in which the week began, the total of the child care rebate (if any) applicable in respect of the individual and the child for each earlier week that falls wholly in that income year (whether paid weekly or quarterly).

           Step 5. The amount of child care rebate applicable in respect of the individual and the child for care provided for the child by the approved child care service in the week is:

                (a) the step 4 amount reduced by the reduction percentage; or
                (b) if the Secretary determines under section 84AAD that the step 4 amount is not to be reduced—the step 4 amount.
