Steps you need to take:


  1. Check if your turnover has dropped (or is expected to in the quarter ending 30 September 2020.

  2. Compare this amount to your turnover for the same period as last year.

  3. If the drop is more than 30% and you are a small business, then you can register for the extension

  4. The registration process for the extension is not yet available but will be towards the end of September.

  5. If you need any help then you can always contact the team at Cloud Safe Accounting.


JobKeeper payment will be available until March 2021 and although it is reducing, it is still a valuable source of income for your eligible business.
