Businesses receiving support will need to reconfirm eligibility fortnightly and payment should be received within a week.
September payments will be processed without further info being required.
There are 3 possible testing options:
If you tested using the fortnight before lockdown, you will continue to use 12-25th June 2021 as the comparison period.
If your original comparison period was 2019 or 2020 –
you are able to test the current fortnight vs same period in 2019 or 2020
or exactly the same period used in your application test period.
You will need to use the same method for future fortnights.
You are able to confirm all the fortnights you are eligible for – receiving a large payment in one fortnight will not stop you receiving payments for future fortnights if your turnover falls again. You do not need to redo the whole application process if you are ineligible for a fortnight.
You are able to confirm more than one fortnight at a time, if you need additional time to update your accounts you will not miss out on payments. You do not need to submit details, however you need to keep records on file in case of audit.
Your BAS or Tax agent can assist you to retest, if they submitted your application, they will need to continue to act on your behalf.
