Change the £100k threshold eligibility for childcare support in the UK

Petition Details

Households who earn over £100k are not eligible for 30 hours childcare. The cost of living makes it very hard for us to afford childcare and we are not given the same privileges as others regardless of the fact that pay more tax

Additional Information

Living in a household where both parents work to provide income it seems unfair that we are penalised for this. We are putting money into the economy by working yet miss out on 30 hours free childcare. The cost of living makes it hard to afford childcare and therefore our children miss out on this benefit.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/636643

If you would like the £100,000 income threshold for free childcare to be abolished entirely, we could accept a petition requesting this.
