Childcare costs when on a dmp

LearningtoAdult

I'm about to start the process of a dmp and im not sure what to do about my childcare costs. I pay for breakfast club and afterschool club and the fees vary each month. I also claim back the cost via universal credit so the amount is different each month.

How do i declare this when filling in my info on the form?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

A DMP is an unregulated, informal agreement, so your budget is not subject to insolvency rules, it’s determined by you 100%, just fill in what it costs you on average, if it’s questioned, then you have reasonable grounds to justify this spending to stepchange, after all its a necessity for you, so cannot be left out.
