Up to 40 hours per calendar month can be allowed for a child who is absent from their child care setting for any reason when the provider requires payment of the absence.

The total number of hours that the child was absent must be listed on the Child Care Request for Payment form.

More than 40 hours per month can be allowed in situations that result in closures or absences due to inclement weather. These situations must be reviewed on a case by case basis, using prudent person judgment. The reason for allowing payment for additional absent days must be documented in the case file.
