Child care providers who receive Child Care Operating Funding (CCOF) must report any changes to licence and service details since renewal, within two business days of the change. To help ensure accurate payments, wait for written confirmation that the change has been completed before submitting an enrolment report or a monthly Early Childhood Educator Wage Enhancement (ECE-WE) report.
Changes will not take effect in a month that:
- the funding agreement starts;
- the funding agreement has already been modified;
- you submitted an enrolment report and received payment; or
- you submitted a monthly ECE report and received payment.
More information is available on the Report Changes web page. Child care providers can report changes using the self-service option available on My ChildCareBC Services. To access the self-service option, log in and select “Report a change” on your dashboard.
Child care providers can also use the self-service option to request a mid-term fee increase. To do so, select “Report a change” on your dashboard, then choose “update parent fees” and indicate the facility the request is for.
Once the CCOF team has reviewed your mid-term fee increase request, they will let you know the results. Written approval from the ministry must be received before implementing a proposed fee increase.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please contact the Child Care Operating Funding program at 1-888-338-6622 (Option 2).
