Perrier Ryan • August 15, 2021
Applications for the 2021 COVID-19 Business Support Grants will open at 12noon today - Monday 16 August 2021.
Applications for these grants will remain open for three months and Guidelines on how to apply are now available at: www.business.qld.gov.au/supportgrant.
The grants will provide $5000 to employing small and medium businesses and large businesses in the hospitality and tourism sectors across Queensland that have been impacted by the recent SEQ or Cairns lockdowns - subject to those businesses meeting the criteria of a 30% reduction in turnover as a result of the lockdowns as well as meeting other eligibility criteria. Check your eligibility here.
Importantly:
- Creating a QRIDA profile is the first step in the application process - so if you don't have one and wish to apply for a grant, you will need to create a QRIDA profile prior to applying. Step by step instructions on how to create a QRIDA (Queensland Rural and and Industry Development Authority) portal profile are available at: www.business.qld.gov.au/supportgrant - along with answers to FAQs. You can create your QRIDA profile here now.
- eligible businesses who apply for a grant during the 3-month application period will receive a grant - and businesses or NFP organisations do not have to be located in one of the lockdown areas to be eligible.
