The Finance Ministry, in collaboration with the Education Ministry, has announced the extension of the application deadline for the $200 Back to School Support program. Originally set to close at 5 PM today, the deadline has been pushed back by one week, allowing parents and guardians until next Friday, December 13, at 5 PM to submit their applications.
The government is urging all eligible parents and guardians to complete the application forms and send them to the relevant schools if they have not already done so. This extension provides an invaluable opportunity for those who may have encountered challenges in applying on time, ensuring that more families can benefit from this support aimed at easing the financial burden of back-to-school expenses.
This development reflects the government’s commitment to enhancing educational accessibility and supporting families during the crucial back-to-school period. Parents are encouraged to take advantage of this extended window to seek the assistance they may need.
In summary, the deadline for applying for the Back to School Support has been extended to December 13, providing an opportunity for more families to receive financial aid.
