How do I know if my employee is eligible for JobKeeper?

The Australian Government has outlined the eligibility criteria here. If you are still unsure we recommend you reach out to your Accountant or Payroll officer.

 

A report has also been provided to assist you with this:

  1. Select Employees in the left-hand menu
  2. Select the Reports tab
  3. Select JobKeeper Eligibility Report (located under Employee)
  4. Choose the appropriate filters and then select Run Report

Navigate to the Eligibility Status column to see whether the employee/s are eligible for the JobKeeper payment.

This information will need to be provided to the ATO on a monthly basis, including the number of eligible employees employed by the business.

The Jobkeeper eligibility report needs updating. New changes apply from early Aug 2020. The Jobkeeper eligibility rules now state that the employee has to have been employed as of 01 Jul 20, not 01 Mar 20, to receive Jobkeeper from the fortnight of 03 Aug 20 onwards. This has implications for part-time and full-time employees who started new jobs between 01 Mar 2020 and 01 Jul 2020.  Could you please urgently fix the Jobkeeper eligibility report o that I can appropriately update the status of all eligible employees?
