• Families with 1 child
  • earn a maximum of $111,000 p.a.

To assist families, we have provided information on our website about the OSCAR Subsidy, including a simple calculator to help determine eligibility. We encourage you to share this resource with families to streamline the application process and make accessing the subsidy easier. Try it out yourself on our website: www.sKids.co.nz/OSCAR
