A47. No. The subsidy will be paid directly to the child care provider on behalf of the employee. Q48. Can invoices be submitted and subsidies paid prior to approval of an employee’s application package? Who submits invoices to FFA for payment? Is there a deadline for submission of invoices? Can employees check the status of their invoice? A48. Employees should not submit invoices to FFA for payment prior to approval of their application package. Subsidies will not be paid for child care services rendered for any month prior to the month of approval by FFA. Employees will submit invoices for payment to FFA and are responsible for ensuring invoices are submitted timely. Invoices should not be mailed to FFA until child care services for the month have been rendered. A separate invoice will be submitted each month using the standardized VA CCSP monthly invoice provided by FFA. Invoices must be mailed (faxes will not be accepted) and received at FFA not later than the last day of the month
