Your child has a special educational need or a disability and has:
Your child is adopted or in foster care and:
- is looked after by the local authority
- has left care under a special guardianship order
- has a child arrangement order
- has an adoption order
If you’re a non- UK citizen who cannot claim benefitsIf your immigration status says you have ‘no recourse to public funds’, you may still get free/funded childcare for your 2-year-old. Your household income after tax must be no more than:
- £34,500 for families with one child
- £38,600 for families with two or more children
You cannot have more than £16,000 in savings or investments.
You can also get free/funded childcare if you have claimed asylum and you receive asylum support. This means:
- you are waiting for a decision for your asylum claim
- you have ‘leave to remain’ (temporary immigration status) with the NRPF condition on grounds of family or private life
- you have the right to live in the UK because you are the main carer of a British citizen known as a “Zambrano carer”
