    • You want to enroll your child in the Child Care Learning Center
    • You make less than $35,000 per year

If the paystub is not available, a letter from your employer is required. The employer letter must include the following: member’s name; last four digits of the member’s Social Security number; hourly pay rate; date of hire; and weekly work hours. The expected date of return must be included for members on short-term disability or workers’ compensation.
  • A copy of your 1199SEIU Health Benefits ID Card, listing your dependents between birth and age 17. If your children are not listed on the 1199SEIU Health Benefits ID Card, other acceptable proof of legal dependency is required, such as

    • Birth certificate listing you as parent
    • A copy of last year’s signed federal tax return listing your adopted and/or biological child(ren)

    If your bargaining unit does not contribute to the 1199SEIU Benefit and Pension Funds, you may submit your participating health insurance ID card, provided that your dependents are listed on it. If not, you must provide proof of legal dependency as listed above.

  • A copy of the Social Security card of each child for whom you are applying. The CCF cannot register any child without a Social Security number/card, including newborn children who do not have one. There are no exceptions to this rule.
