16.01.2022 Notice about the 491 - SBO (Small Business Owners) Program From 1 April 2021 - the pre-existing business purchased will need to have been in operation for 2 ye...ars instead of 1 year. There will also need to be a minimum purchase price of $100,000 (rather than total investment in the business). Furthermore, sub-leases of franchises (such as petrol stations), and home-based businesses (such as courier and cleaning businesses) will not be considered. These requirements are aimed at ensuring the program is sustainable in the long-term. Please note: businesses that have been purchased prior to 1 April 2021 are not subject to these requirements. however there must be a valid contract provided for the business before this date (i.e. business must have settled).
