02.01.2022 Guys, are you claiming JobKeeper Payment for your employees? ATO says to take out PAYG tax before you pay them, and pay the full $1500 before tax not anything less, or you wont be eligible to claim it back off the govt - "Law firm Clayton Utz explained that eligible employers will still have Pay As You Go (PAYG) tax withholding obligations, regardless of whether the eligible employee has been stood down or is still completing work. The eligible employer must provide the el...igible employee at least $1,500 per fortnight (before tax) to apply for the JobKeeper Payment. The eligible employee will be taxed (withheld by the eligible employer) on this payment. Your payment cant be less than $1,500 before tax While your payment may be affected by tax obligations, there arent any other reasons why you should receive less than $1,500 from your employer every fortnight if youre receiving the JobKeeper payment. The ATO has warned employers that it will be tracking the flow of payments. This means your boss cannot split payments between themselves and the employee, between several employees or claim a portion of the $1,500 fortnightly payment on administration fees."
