AMERICORPS
MEMBER CONFIRMATION
|
Please
initial
each box to verify that you have read and understand the
policies listed below:
I
certify that:
|
|
I
am the parent or legal guardian of the child(ren) listed in
this application and understand that I may have to present
documentation to confirm physical custody of the child
needing care to be eligible for the AmeriCorps Childcare
Benefit Program.
|
|
I
need the AmeriCorps Childcare Program benefit in order to
serve.
|
|
All
information submitted in this application is true and correct
and I understand that any misrepresentation or falsification
of information may result in prosecution under applicable
state and federal law.
|
|
My
total family household income has been reported.
|
I
understand
that:
|
|
The
information on this application and supporting documentation
is required to determine my eligibility for the benefit.
|
|
The
AmeriCorps Childcare staff may verify any information on this
application at any time they deem necessary.
|
|
The
childcare benefit for which I may be eligible is based on
income, household size, age of child(ren), the
provider/program license type, and the provider/programs
location. If
there are any changes to my situation, I must report all
changes to the AmeriCorps Childcare Program immediately.
|
|
I
must notify the AmeriCorps Childcare Program if and when my
service status changes or ends. I understand that my
eligibility ends on my last day of service.
|
|
I
must select a qualified childcare provider/program that meets
state and federal qualifications necessary to participate in
the AmeriCorps Childcare Program. The
AmeriCorps Childcare Program is under no obligation to begin
payments until the provider/program has met all prerequisites
as described in my state’s Childcare Development Fund
Plan.
|
|
I
must give the AmeriCorps Childcare Program a minimum of 2
weeks’ notice when changing childcare
providers/programs and must turn in all necessary paperwork
to process such provider. (See Provider Checklist under FORMS
on www.americorpschildcare.com
).
|
|
I
may use more than one provider (or use a back-up provider);
The AmeriCorps Childcare Program will not
pay for the same period of care for the same child, to
multiple providers.
|
|
The
AmeriCorps Childcare Program will only make all payments to
my childcare provider.
Payments are distributed on a monthly basis, after the month
of care has been provided. Payments are processed within 10
business days of receipt of a completed attendance sheet.
You,
the
AmeriCorps Member, are responsible for paying all childcare
charges in excess of the childcare benefit amount.
|
|
AmeriCorps
members may not claim a childcare benefit from AmeriCorps
while also receiving a childcare benefit from another source.
|
|
I
understand that accepting childcare support for the same
service for the same child may result in prosecution under
applicable state and federal law.
|
|
I
understand that AmeriCorps is not legally required to make
payments to the childcare provider if I refuse childcare
services.
|
I
understand/certify that I have read all of the above and
understand its content. I also understand that non-compliance
with any of the above may result in termination of my
participation in the AmeriCorps Childcare Program and that I may
be required to re-pay any money paid on my behalf and any
misrepresentation of information may result in prosecution under
applicable state and federal law.
