May 2020 Client Alert

| Accounting

We have a special announcement this month. This coming Wednesday 20 May we are putting on a Tax Planning webinar exclusively for our clients. You should have received an email from us with details about registering. We highly recommend you attend the webinar as this could quite possibly be THE MOST IMPORTANT YEAR EVER to save tax due to COVID-19.

The coronavirus pandemic continues to significantly impact the economy, businesses and employment. Throughout the last month many of you have lent upon our expertise to assist with JobKeeper claims. We hosted three webinars to help answer your most pressing questions and help you meet significant deadlines which have since passed. We continue to help you claim JobKeeper each month, with the JobKeeper program set to continue until the end of September. Do get in contact with us if you still have any questions or require further assistance with JobKeeper eligibility and monthly claims.

Cash Flow Boost payments have also started to flow through after lodgement of March Activity Statements. If you need further information on the Cash Flow Boost then check this blog by Simon Strawbridge. Alternatively please contact us on (08) 9427 5200.

The ATO opened applications for early release of superannuation for those severely impacted by COVID-19. This was temporarily paused due to hackers illegally using people’s details to scam the program. The program is set to release up to $10,000 in super in the current 2020 financial year and up to $10,000 in super in the 2021 financial year. Let us know if you think you qualify and would like help.

The Federal Budget has been delayed this year to 6 October. Ordinarily it would have happened this Tuesday just passed.

Once again, if you or your business need help with your financial arrangements during this difficult time, we can help you to work out which of the many coronavirus related payments, concessions and arrangements apply to you, and how you can best make use of them. Contact us today.
