Hi BreeDeCunha
A Closely Help Payee (CHP) is almost always a Salary and Wages Payee (SAW) as well. Specifying them as CHP can qualify for some concessional treatment (frequency of reporting, due dates etc).

So use CHP or SAW and whatever you specify on the employee's card, this is what MYOB will send to the ATO.
Suggest you check this with your accountant or tax adviser. I would also check your first statement, depending on what business structure is used (sole trader/partnership/company etc) to ensure accountant is aware.
