Apprentice subsidy continues - and expands

The Australian Government has announced the extension and expansion of the Supporting Apprentices and Trainees wage subsidy, to include medium-sized businesses who had an apprentice in place on 1 July 2020.

Eligible employers can apply for a wage subsidy of 50% of an eligible apprentice or trainee's wages paid until 31 March 2021. In addition to the existing support for small businesses, medium-sized businesses will now be eligible for the subsidy, for wages paid from 1 July 2020 to 31 March 2021.

Further information about eligibility can be found on the government website for Employment or at the Employment Department newsroom.

For information on how to apply for the subsidy, contact an Australian Apprenticeship Support Network Provider.

The rush toward end of financial year is on us - here are a couple of important things to consider at this time: Maximise your Super One key opportunity in your superannuation strategy is to make the most of your Concessional Contributions - but get them in before 23 June 2025 to ensure they're processed in time. Another valuable opportunity is the carry-forward contributions - remembering that unused cap amounts from the 2019-2020 FY will expire after 30 June 2025 - so this is your last chance to use them. Take Advantage of the $20,000 instant asset write-off before 30 June 2025 If you're a small business owner, now is the time to consider investing in new equipment or assets. The $20,000 instant asset write-off has been extended for the 2024–25 financial year — but it expires on 30 June 2025 and there is currently no confirmed extension beyond this date. This applies to assets that are first used or installed ready for use between 1 July 2024 and 30 June 2025. For more, see our attached information , or, call the office - 3391 7566
