Processing Work Experience payments through payroll

Hi there, 

 

I have two VCAL students who are under the age of 18 who will be with us for 6 months, who will be getting paid per the hour one day per week. 

 

As I am wanting to put them through the payroll system, can I and should I do this without reporting these amounts through STP as I believe they will not require a PAYG summary?

 

Are there non-reporting and non taxing codes I can use to set them up?

 

Thank you.

    Hi 

     

    If you are paying them I think it should be reported to the ATO and they should get a payment summary, super etc as required.

     

    There are non reporting catergories in the ATO reporting - you will need to set up a pay catergory for them and apply that ato reporting catergory to it

     

    I would check with your accountant to be sure how this is handled however

     

    Hope this helps

    Hi Sand3977,,

     

    Thank you for your post, I hope you have been able to sort this out. 

     

    As LRBooks61 mentioned above, there are non-reportable categories that can be used when certain wage types do not need to be reported on, however, I would also advise speaking with a financial advisor or the ATO with guidance on this.
