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.
Depends on how much the parent is making on their job. If the parent is a student they can get 100% assistance from the state.
