The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is reminding businesses that have employed new young people to check if they are eligible to claim the JobMaker Hiring Credit. Employers can receive up to $10,400 over year for each new job they fill between 7 October 2020 and 6 October 2021 with an eligible employee aged 16 to 29 years, and $5,200 over a year for each eligible employee aged 30 to 35 years.
To receive JobMaker Hiring Credit payments, employers must complete three steps – register for the scheme, nominate their additional employees through STP and claim.
