<p>Due to the way Tax-Free Childcare is linked to 30 hours free childcare, a large
number of Tax-Free Childcare accounts for 3 and 4 years olds are opened but not used
to pay a childcare provider. This happens because a child who has a 30 hours account
opened, will automatically have a Tax-Free Childcare account opened as well, if their
parents are eligible. The reason for this feature of the service is to ensure a smooth
customer journey for families signing up for 30 hours free childcare, so that they
have a Tax-Free Childcare account ready for use when their child is no longer eligible
for 30 hours free childcare.</p><p> </p><p>Additionally, when a Tax-Free Childcare
account is opened for a child, of any age, accounts will be opened for their siblings
if their details are also entered during the application.</p>
