The "Family Child Care Provider Guide" is a publication released in October 2002 by the IRS Taxpayer Education and Communication office in Cleveland, Ohio. This forty-page booklet summarizes the basic record keeping rules that affect family child care providers. The Cleveland office of the IRS is using this publication in Ohio to help educate family child care providers about their tax responsibilities and to increase tax filing compliance.
