The fractional Fokker-Planck equation for subdiffusion in time-dependent force fields is derived from the underlying continuous time random walk. Its limitations are discussed and it is then applied to the study of subdiffusion under the influence of a time-periodic rectangular force. As a main result, we show that such a force does not affect the universal scaling relation between the anomalous current and diffusion when applied to the biased dynamics: in the long time limit subdiffusion current and anomalous diffusion are immune to the driving. This is in sharp contrast with the unbiased case when the subdiffusion coefficient can be strongly enhanced, i.e. a zero-frequency response to a periodic driving is present.
