PROVIDER CONTRACTS
The FCC office does not regulate the FCC provider’s contracts or fees. Take the time to read and understand the terms of the provider’s contract fully before an agreement is made. Contracts are binding. If you have any questions, discuss questions before care begins and continue to communicate regularly. Make sure you complete all paperwork and receive a copy of your signed contract. You may also want to request tax information for filing childcare credit if applicable. The FCC office is not allowed to supply Social Security Numbers; you’ll have to get this information directly from your provider.
