Redetermine eligibility no more often than every 12 months.

The Minnesota Child Care Assistance Program Redetermination Form DHS-5274 (PDF) is used to redetermine eligibility. You may also treat a Minnesota Child Care Assistance Program application DHS-3550 (PDF) as a redetermination form. Do NOT treat a redetermination form as a new application.

All families must complete a redetermination form and provide required verifications for continued benefits.
