    If I send my own kids to daycare those two weeks would it solve the problem?

      yes....

      are you on the food program?? they always account for my son.

      I had to do this last year when I made a mistake. I sent him to my in laws for a thursday -Monday. came home on the weekend

      I just told the food program so that I could claim the other child and they would not automatically account for my son

        I was just going to say, how about sending your own to Grandma's for the two weeks? Would that help? You'd still have 3 under 2 though...

        My dd (now 14) attended daycare for two weeks before her 2nd bday so that I could take another child. It was her only dc experience outside of mine.

          So, technically I would be fine if I made other arrangements for one of my kids to be out of my home for those 2 weeks? If that's the case I think I can do that.
          I am on the food program but don't claim my own kids.

                Someone from CA answer this one...I don't know your ratios. Here in WI, that would work.

                  I always see this on my detail claims

                  Non-Participating Child Noted for Capacity checking, yet disallowed for meals.

                    No, that will not work. Your problem is that you will be over capacity with your infants (under age 2). You're allowed 3 under 2 OR a total of 4 under 2.

                    If you send your kids away, you will have 4 under the age of 2 AND a 2 yo. That still puts you over capacity.

                        I don't think so. You would still have 4 infants and 1 child during those two weeks, not including your own children.
