24.01.2022 ### Big JobKeeper News To Be Announced Today ### Due to the recent economic deterioration in Victoria (caused by Stage 4 Lockdown), Federal Treasury is set to formally announce today changes to the eligibility criteria for the JobKeeper Extension program (Phase 2 that begins on 28 September). The eligibility rules will be eased somewhat to remove the need to pass an actual decline in turnover in both the June and September quarters. Treasury will also extend the employee employment start date test from 1 March 2020 to 1 July 2020. So that means newer employees will be eligible for the JobKeeper extension program. We will provide more details once the formal announcement is made later today.

22.01.2022 If you are contemplating applying for one of the new Government-backed COVID business stimulus loans then this video is a must-watch. Jason outlines the new phase of the scheme since 1 October with the loan limit increasing to $1m. But like most things, the devil is in the detail and these loans are not necessarily as helpful as the Government has conveyed (shocking). Jason is always happy to chat about commercial and personal lending requirements so feel free to reach out to him on 0432359973 or [email protected] https://360partners.com.au//stimulus-business-loans-the-f/

21.01.2022 **Changes to the Current JobKeeper Program** The treasurer has introduced changes to the current JobKeeper program that will take effect from JK fortnight 10 onwards. The main change is that the cut off date for eligible employees has been moved forward from the original 1 March 2020 to 1 July 2020. So for employers that hired new employees after 1 March 2020 but before 1 July 2020 you may now be eligible to claim JobKeeper rebates for them until 27 September. This might also help claims regarding some casual employees who didn't meet the 12-month work test on the 1st of March (but may meet that test by 1 July). The legislative instrument has not been formally issued but employers should start planning for it to be approved shortly. This also means those new eligible employees may require top-up payments for fortnights 10 onwards.

12.01.2022 Jason gives us a quick outline of his process for refinancing a home loan. It certainly breaks down the old perception that changing home loan providers is time-consuming and really the savings are too good to ignore. With the average mortgage so high its common for Jason to find savings of a whopping $5.000 to $10,000 per year!

08.01.2022 Hot off the press from last Friday 18th Sept 2020 at the Full Federal Court on appeal. The taxpayer (Eichmann v Commissioner of Taxation) wins landmark case! This is a very important victory for small business capital gains. Had the ATO position been upheld there would have been massive implications for property assets used within business. This was a real iceberg moment that affects many businesses that own property used within their business. We particularly enjoyed the cou...rt's rebuke of the Commissioner's submission that the CGT concessions be applied restrictively. In our opinion (and the court's apparently) the clear intent of inserting "concessions" in the tax law was and is to provide tax relief to the taxpayer. You can read the transcript here http://www.austlii.edu.au///cases/cth/FCAFC//2020/155.html If you have any small business capital gains tax issues please don't hesitate to get in touch with us at [email protected] or 03 9005 4900.

08.01.2022 "$5,000 to $10,000 per year in interest savings are not uncommon." How do you know if your interest rate is too high? Reviewing your bank loans is an easy way to save significant money. Since we launched our finance division, this has never been truer. The way your banks set your interest rate is extraordinarily complicated, and it’s sometimes difficult to ascertain if you’re paying too much. One recent example is a medico client of ours. Undertaking her own review, she had a...sked the bank to review her rates. They had shaved off a little although keeping her in her existing structure. Upon our review, we found that the home loan was no longer structured to meet her needs. It could be swapped to principal and interest and she was now living in the house. Restructuring the loan and putting pressure on the right banks resulted in a saving of 1.60%. Not a bad result on a $800,000 loan x 1.60% = $12,800 per annum saved We are finding more and more of our clients stuck in legacy banking products. With the bank’s fiercely competing for business now is a great time to review your banking. If think you would benefit from a review of your finances, Jason O’Shaughnessy from 360 Partners Finance would be more than happy to review. You can call Jason directly on 0432 359 973 or email [email protected] https://360partners.com.au//home-investment-loans-are-you/

07.01.2022 NOW OR NEVER.....With the world now heading into recession, there has never been a more important time to get serious and invest in your business sales and marketing process. At 360 Partners we like to practice what we preach so earlier this year we engaged Byron and the team at Pixelrush to assist with Phase One of our digital marketing journey. As we discuss in the video, working with Pixelrush has been a bit of a gamechanger for our firm because it’s really highlighted the importance of systematic investment in business marketing. As the former Chairman of Google Eric Schmidt famously said ..Revenue Solves All Problems. https://360partners.com.au//has-your-business-embraced-di/

02.01.2022 **Are Fixed Rate Home Loans Worthwhile?** There are some very attractive fixed-rate mortgages around at the moment but are they really worthwhile? Residential banking and lending guru Jason O'Shaughnessy explains the economics of fixed-rate mortgages and considers the pros and cons.

01.01.2022 With lockdown now over and many businesses reopening their doors is your business premises COVIDSafe? From 13th September this year, it became mandatory for all Victorian businesses to implement a COVIDSafe plan for their workplaces and business premises. With the strict lockdown only ending on 28 October it’s highly likely that many businesses have yet to contemplate this requirement and put something in place so now is the time to square it away. Fortunately, with so many small business clients affected by this, we decided to knock up a quick video and gather some free resources to allow you to get this done as efficiently as possible.
