Set up a new Government Gateway account

Your current account isn't suitable for the childcare service. You need to set up a new account.

Close your internet browser and start again. Wait 15 minutes before continuing.

Why isn't my account suitable?

Normally this is because your account is linked to quite different services, such as Self-Assessment tax returns.

You will need to keep using your existing account for any services it is already linked to.
