Apparently being a disabled veteran is automatically a disqualification for 2 years this agency lead our family around I'm circles asking for paperwork from Veterans Affairs and then denying my case after evidence is submitted. This agency handles their funds very poorly if Veterans who have given everything for this country can't even get help from a government funded State agency

The two security guards in front are extremely rude and unprofessional. They talk about clients in front of them to other employees. The employees themself were okay, answered questions very vaguely with no real answer. They said they couldn’t even see anything pertaining to my case which is absurd. Why even be open if cases can’t even be searched. At the end I was given my receipt but no additional information.

It is taking a least two to three months to get approve right because they are delayed. They are still processing applications

Illinois Action For Children - Chatham (South Side) | Oct 11, 2020

You will need to call the State of Illinois Comptroller at (217) 557-0930 to set up direct deposit.

I’m trying to find out how do you have them to take out taxes so when you fill your taxes you be okay

joanna cook | Oct 11, 2020
Illinois Action For Children - Chatham (South Side) | Oct 11, 2020

Unfortunately, the State of Illinois defines all CCAP providers as independent contractors, and will not deduct taxes from CCAP payments.

What is the maximum percentage of help can a parent get for childcare assistance for 1 child?

Riana Smith | Oct 12, 2019
Illinois Action For Children - Chatham (South Side) | Oct 12, 2019

The amount of money a parent needs to pay for their portion of child care (copayment), is based on a parent’s income. Here is a link to the current copayment chart. http://www.dhs.state.il.us/onenetlibrary/12/documents/Forms/IL444-3455B.pdf The State does not cover fees some providers charge, such as: the difference between the State rate and the provider’s rate, registration fees, and field trip fees.

You can always put something in the drop box. But who knows when they would get to it? I would wait until they are open. Unless you are already late then put it in the box.
