Specific issues for employees and rental property owners ATO concessions and how to access them Dealing with JobKeeper and cashflow boost amounts The updated JobKeeper rules that apply from 3 August 2020
A significant number of employees, investors and business entities have been impacted in some way by COVID-19. From changes to normal working patterns, economic impacts and the introduction of specific stimulus measures, there are a range of issues that clients are now facing that they have never had to think about before.
The COVID-19 Tax Issues Webinar explores the common tax-related issues that have arisen as a result of COVID-19 and how to deal with these in practice.
The ATO has provided guidance on a number of specific issues in recent months and is providing concessional treatment in some areas. It is vital that practitioners are aware of what is available and where the treatment might be different to normal practice.
