    Hi Donna1966 

     

    As this payment is made directly to the employee through Centrelink it's not employer related. This means that we haven't been advised by the ATO of any special requirements or obligations like there was for JobKeeper.

     

    With all the different types of payments available now and the different rules and eligibility criteria I'd recommend checking with Fairwork or Services Australia to make sure you're are paying and accruing as required.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.
