Did you know that on 1 May the Victorian Government expanded their criteria for their $500m Business Support Fund to help small businesses in the sectors hardest hit by the Covid-19 pandemic so they can survive and keep people in work?
This means you can now apply for a grant if your business has wages less than the payroll tax threshold of $650,000 and you are participating in the Commonwealth Government’s JobKeeper program, regardless of the sector you operate in.
Businesses that have not previously applied for a grant due to their sector classification are encouraged to make an application for a grant at business.vic.gov.au when applications for the expanded group open in the coming days.
More information can be found here.
Should you have any questions or need any help applying for the grant, or ensuring you receive all available assistance, please reach out to our team at Rose Partners and we will endeavour to do our best to assist.
Stay safe.
