I had a family for the first time last year need information for I believe the childcare credit. I can't remember the form from the state but it didn't have anything to do with cash payments but I had to send in dates child was enrolled (which they still were), their rate, usual times in care and copies of all payments, it was ridiculous. I called the state and they said they are "randomly" selected. In all my 20 yrs of this NEVER had to do anything like that. Then this year another family brought this to me, she said they have been "selected" at least 3 yrs from my understanding, however, she had a form this time and only had me fill that out, it did say on there that I had to send payments log but she said they never did that before and it wasn't questioned so I didn't.
I'm in Oregon, it's a total pain and I think it's ridiculous the state has providers fill all that out, I already give them an end of year statement.
