Time Frame for Submitting SFN 616 'Child Care Billing Report' Forms 400-28-130-10

(Revised 10/1/11 ML #3278)

Billing report forms must be submitted during the 6 month period following the month child care services were provided. If the billing report form is received after the 6 month period, the payment cannot be made.

Example: If child care is incurred for the service month of May, the last day the form can be submitted is up to the close of the last business day in November, to be considered as received within the 6 month time frame.

If a form is received after the 6 month time period, the family must be notified that payment cannot be made because the billing report form was received after the 6 month time limit. The family must be notified in writing the payment cannot be made.
