Based on the availability of funding, FSET agencies may reimburse the actual cost of dependent care up to either the local market rate or the statewide limit, whichever is lower. Eligibility for child care through the Wisconsin Shares child care subsidy program should be pursued prior to expending FSET funds on child care. Child care providers are eligible for reimbursement if they are licensed by the state, certified by the county or tribe, or operated by a school board. Child care expenses provided by licensed or certified relatives are eligible for reimbursement up to the maximum rate allowed as a Provisional Certified Family Care Provider.
A child care provider living in the child’s household is ineligible for child care reimbursement through the FSET program. Unregulated child care cannot be funded by FSET unless the child or regulated provider is ill and unregulated care is the only option available.
