Are there any tax liability issue I should know about?

Dependent Care and Tax Liability Issues – Employees

The Internal Revenue Service has determined that employees may allocate up to $5,000 per year in a dependent care assistance account established by their employer. This $5,000 allocation includes the combined monies applied to the following UA-sponsored pre-tax programs:

• Flexible Spending Account (FSA)* for dependent (child and/or elder) care only (excludes medical expenses)
• UA Childcare Choice Employee Reimbursement Program for Qualified Childcare Expenses
• Employee Sick and Back-Up Childcare (includes the entire value of the program -employee and employer costs)

*You may designate an amount of pre-tax salary to be placed in a dependent care-related and/or medical expenses-related FSA. These tax-free dollars may then be used to reimburse you for qualified out-of-pocket medical care and/or dependent care (childcare/elder care) expenses. You reduce your taxable income, as no Social Security, federal, or state income taxes are taken from the designated dollars and this amount is excluded from your taxable income.

Please note that dependent care expenditures that exceed the $5,000 limit may be subject to income tax. The annual FSA figures (total costs) will appear on your Form W-2 Wage and Tax Statement. This information is not intended to serve as tax advice. Please consult your professional tax advisor to identify the full tax implications of program use and to determine the optimal use of dependent care offerings. For information about the status of your FSA or qualified deductions, contact ASI at http://www.asiflex.com or at (800) 659-3035.

Dependent are and Tax Liability Issues – Students

Childcare can be a major expense for many students. Please contact a professional tax advisor to determine if you are eligible for a tax credit. Additionally, subsidized monies applied toward childcare can be considered “scholarship” income and may be subject to taxation. This information is not intended to serve as tax advice. Please consult your professional tax advisor to identify the full tax implications of program use and to determine the optimal use of dependent care offerings.

How much does kindergarten cost in America? Is it difficult to send a child there or get a job on your own? How much do educators get paid, and why does each of them need an iPad? Alexandra Salnikova, together with her husband and little daughter, moved to the United States about two years ago after winning the Green Card lottery. The girl told how, when applying for a job, she was interviewed by a pumpkin and a rabbit, and also why children are forbidden to sleep on pillows.

— My husband found a job in America right away, and my one-year-old daughter and I gently adapted to the new living conditions. About a year later, I decided to go to work because maternity leave got boring. I graduated from Perm State University with a degree in teaching French and English. However, I never used my diploma in Russia, but I decided to start with this. I wanted to immerse myself in a new culture and start the process of socialization. Luckily, the prestigious Primrose School close to home was in need of a toddler teacher. After reading reviews about the school, I ventured to go for an interview that coincided with the celebration of Halloween. So the owners of the educational institution interviewed me in costumes of a pumpkin and a rabbit. I only had a notary-certified translation of my diploma, but that suited them just fine. We immediately agreed on a salary of $ 11 per hour (the minimum rate in our state), but I myself was able to choose the hours and work schedule. Plus, I could be close to my daughter and have a discount on her education. After all, the cost of a kindergarten is about $1200 per month.

The longest queue in groups up to a year (Infants). Accept there since six weeks. Many parents enroll their unborn child in the first trimester of pregnancy. And here I want to recall our Russian realities with three-year decrees. After all, usually the decree of an American mother lasts 12 weeks, and you will be very lucky if at least part of them is paid. Then either quit, or negotiate with the employer to go out part-time, or give it to the garden, hire a nanny and completely go to work.

I started as a teacher’s assistant with no class assignment. Thus, I spent several hours a day in different age groups, replacing teachers during illness, lunch break or vacation. As a result, I tried myself with different ages. After a couple of months of such a nomadic life, I settled on two-year-olds. Mostly because of the Mexican partner Garcia, who turned out to be close in spirit.

The first disadvantage of the American kindergarten is diapers. Arizona state regulations require us to change them every two hours. Often children in two – two and a half years, and some of them already look at all five, still carry this load in their pants.

Moreover, we are obliged to enter all our activities in the child’s daily report via iPad, so the system often prompted us after how many minutes we should check and change the child’s diaper. Each delay is reflected to the parent in the application as a distress call. Many even began to call and be indignant about this. It also stores all the data on the arrival and departure of the child, his daily diet, sleep duration, teacher notes, as well as teacher notes, photos and videos of the child during the day.

Diapers for children are changed every two hours

The school is open from 6 am to 6 pm. The parent himself decides when to bring and take the child. Many schools have a restriction that a child cannot be in the garden for more than ten hours. The number of children in groups depends on age. For example, the smallest need one teacher for four children. In older groups, one teacher is required for 6-12 children.

Every morning begins with a Pledge of Allegiance – an oath of allegiance to the American flag – with the right hand over the heart and the removal of the hat. If at that time parents came into the classroom, they instantly straightened up, took off their caps and began to sing the anthem with us. This is sacred: patriotism instilled from childhood.

All babies should sleep until the age of four. Beds are prohibited by state safety regulations, so children sleep in the play area on small plastic cribs with netting inside, there is no separate room. Each child has their own sheet and blanket. Pillows are also prohibited. At bedtime, the child can bring one soft toy or blanket from home. Sometimes parents give permission for the child not to sleep during the day. Then we give him a book or coloring books for sleep so that he does not interfere with others.

They try to feed children with healthy food. But, in the opinion of the Russian mom, it’s just awful. No soups, cereals and casseroles for you. Once a week they can please with pizza, macaroni and cheese or chicken nuggets. But mostly they try to stick to the “healthy plate” rule, which should consist of vegetables, fruits, protein and cereals – all in quarters. Drinks – milk or water.

Children with allergies or vegetarians/vegans are taken very seriously. Teachers should learn all the forbidden foods in their class and be the last line of defense. If a parent wants to feed only food from home, the school goes forward, but this does not reduce the cost.

Parents’ thanks

Walking in the open air is another difficulty of local kindergartens. Usually it is 45 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the evening. In my opinion, this is terribly small. But the children seem to have enough, and sometimes they themselves ask to return.

Since the heat of +40 in Arizona lasts for half a year, for especially hot June and July, half-hour walks on the Splash Pad are provided twice a week. This is something like small water rides where children can run, get wet and have fun. They bring the child in the morning already in a bathing suit and with applied sunscreen, then the teacher changes clothes. I know that this opportunity is rare in other gardens.

Children often get sick during the cold season: from October to April. In the summer, everything is relatively calm. There is a list of symptoms with which they will not be allowed into school. Snot is not one of them, even to the knees. Now, if there is a high temperature, rash, vomiting, conjunctivitis, then entry is prohibited.

For each scratch or bruise received at school, the teacher fills out a report for the parent describing the situation, a list of measures taken and the number of hugs and kisses that were given to the child. Ice packs, plasters, bandages – all this is always at hand for the teacher.

In addition, every teacher must have a first aid certificate. For us, classes were arranged right at the school, inviting a team of trainers. We practiced on mannequins of different ages, from newborns to adults. Particular attention was paid to cases when the child choked, as this is one of the most common situations.

Mail Day takes place once a month, when parents can leave notes for their children. Pupils of four or five years old dress up as postmen and deliver letters to classes. The teacher reads the wishes from the parents aloud. Inside there may be small gifts in the form of photos, stickers, coloring books, depending on the imagination of the parents. Children then spend the whole day hugging these letters, kissing them and even sleeping with them. The degree of cuteness at such moments just rolls over.

A few months later I was offered to work with three-year-olds as a full-fledged head teacher. It became much easier, and I happily began to bring my teaching ideas to life, relying on a first-class curriculum. Why is he so good? Firstly, it is completely in electronic form, no papers and notebooks. Secondly, it has a lot of interesting activities for all types of intelligence, with tips for an individual approach to children who are behind or, conversely, ahead of the program. Each class has a timetable consistent with the curriculum. The teacher can change the classes depending on the mood of the children, the weather outside, or other circumstances.

A lot of time is devoted to free play in centers with various activities, when no one and nothing prevents the child from just having fun and communicating. The teacher acts as an observer and prompter if the child needs it. One of the features of my school is a class change every six months, so that the child does not get too attached to the teacher and the environment.

I really liked the atmosphere in the team and the responsive attitude of the leaders. The director always took me aside and asked how he could help if he suddenly noticed sadness on the face of the teacher. The Americans have a principle – speak right away, if you don’t like something, we’ll think about how to solve it.

When I decided to leave, I knew for sure that my daughter was staying in this kindergarten. Mom must move on, my goals have been achieved. I stopped being afraid to speak English, made a huge number of acquaintances among teachers and parents, and learned a lot about myself (it turns out that I can tolerate, and sometimes even love other people’s children!). I will remember the reviews of parents, drawings of children and a huge gratitude for this experience.

Kindergartens in America: what is it

Kindergartens in the USA differ significantly from what we are used to at home. “Due to the fact that there is no maternity leave in America, babies are sent to kindergartens very early, in our kindergarten the smallest child was seven weeks old,” writes Flora Bilik, owner of the Skazka kindergarten, in her blog.

There is no division into nurseries and kindergartens in the USA either. But from the age of five, every child must attend special groups at the school, which are called Kindergarten. I will try to briefly talk about the system of preschool education in the United States.

And so, in America you can choose a kindergarten (day care) for every taste. Kindergartens differ in size: there are small (family) kindergartens, they can have from 8 to 14 children (respectively with a small or large resolution) and traditional large ones (centers), where there are about 25 people in one group.

Usually the day at the center is divided into two parts: classes with teachers, during which the children sit in a circle, sing songs, read, learn letters and numbers, and time for self-study, when the child himself chooses a toy or educational tool to his liking.

In kindergartens, all the children clean up after themselves and put everything in its place. In the yard for children there are safe playgrounds with slides and a sandbox.

Family kindergartens are located on the territory of a private house. Their activities are subject to mandatory licensing.

A big plus of such kindergartens is that there are few children, which means a more individual approach to each child, a family environment, relatively cheap, many of these kindergartens are designed for one or another diaspora (for example, there are Russian, Chinese or Mexican kindergartens).

The disadvantages are that: the training program is weaker than in the centers, in addition, there may not be enough space for the child, there are few children, there is no varied communication.

The centers are located in specially designed buildings. There are enough children in them.
In the centers, children are accepted from the cradle. For example, babies are accepted from six weeks. Everything that the child may need (diapers, infant formula and everything else) must be brought by the parents.

Such an early age of admission of children because there is almost no maternity leave in the USA.
In America, you have to go to work one and a half months after giving birth. Many American mothers make a choice in favor of work.

American gardens are not similar to ours in terms of food either. Most kindergartens do not have traditional breakfasts, hot lunches and afternoon snacks. They are replaced either by food that parents give with them in a container, or snacks – pizza and fruit. Some gardens, however, sometimes offer hot meals as an option.

Home kindergartens have a slightly different situation. They try to feed the kids with hot lunches, but the menu is at the choice of the hostess of the kindergarten.

Also in American gardens, children usually sleep not on beds, but on special mattresses that are placed on the floor. In this case, the children do not undress. It is believed that kids should be prepared for various emergencies and not waste time getting ready. Cribs are only for the little ones.

In small home gardens, children can be put to bed.

Of course, only parents decide whether or not to send their child to kindergarten, there are no special requirements at the legislative level.

Kindergartens in the US are mostly private. However, free gardens are also provided for low-income families. Even in small towns, by contacting the local department of education, you can find a free garden. True, if you find such a kindergarten, this does not mean that you will immediately be able to send your child there. There are huge queues for free kindergartens. These kindergartens accept children practically from birth to five years.

The average cost of a private daycare for babies from six months to five years is about $1,000 per month. For older children (schoolchildren) the cost is much lower.

As a rule, home kindergartens pick up children after school, as parents work and not every parent has such an opportunity.

American gardens teach parents to be organized. When a child enters the kindergarten, the parent signs a contract, which stipulates fines for being late and not small ones. So being late for 20 minutes will cost parents about 10-15 dollars.

If the child is not picked up 20-30 minutes after the end of the working hours of the kindergarten, and the parent cannot be reached by phone, the caregivers should call the police. The policeman arrives with a representative of the guardianship authorities and the child can even be taken away from the family. Therefore, try not to be late for your children.

In general, although kindergartens are not obligatory for children of preschool age, I personally strongly advise you to send your child to school for at least one year.

Only in kindergarten will a child learn the first steps of communication with peers, learn to defend his Self and work (play) in a team.

And finally, my little advice. Carefully approach the choice of kindergarten for your baby. Do not choose a garden, because it is near your house, choose the place where your baby will be warm and cozy.

Be sure to ask:
– what will your little one do during the day;
– what will they feed yours;
– Where your baby will play, sleep, study, eat.

Remember: You are giving away the most valuable and precious thing you have! You trust your Child’s caregiver!
