19.01.2022 While the Government has invested a significant amount of money through JobKeeper to encourage and assist businesses to maintain its workforce and keep people employed, this Budget was a little disappointing for businesses. The budget was a greater disappointment for small businesses than perhaps for medium to large business as they will most likely gain more benefits from the immediate asset write off and the temporary loss carry back provisions. We have summarised the key points from the October Federal Budget as they relate to Australian businesses below.

19.01.2022 Yesterday the Government announced a second Coronavirus stimulus package totalling $189 billion. Weve put together comprehensive information on how you could benefit. If you have any queries related to this please contact the office 03 9629 1433.

09.01.2022 With the release of the Governments Stimulus Package Retirees may need to review their situation. Have you been wondering what support you will receive or can possibly access as a result of all the changes related to COVID19 as well as the resulting share market declines? This newsletter aims to outline and clarify the changes announced by Government that aim to support you during these unprecedented times. From the lowering of the Deeming rates on 1 May 2020, or halving o...f the Account Based Pensions minimum required payment levels, there are a host of support payments being provided to assist people through the next 6 months or so. While these temporary measures should not mean a total change to your retirement strategy there might be a chance that you now qualify for something eg. Commonwealth Seniors Health Card or even a partial Age Pension. For those people already on Age pension benefits you should automatically receive the two support payments of $750.
