As a result of the ongoing effects of COVID-19, the JobKeeper
payment has been extended until 28 March 2021.
In order to be eligible for JobKeeper support, not-for-profits
must have experienced a decline in turnover.
- For charities registered with the ACNC (other than a university
or school), a decline in turnover of 15% or more is required.
- For all other NFP entities with an aggregated turnover of up to
$1 billion, their GST turnover must fall or be anticipated to fall
by 30% or more.
- Not-for-profits with an aggregated turnover of more than $1
billion have to experience or expect to experience a fall of GST
turnover by 50%.
As of 28 September 2020, the payment rate for eligible
not-for-profit employees working 20 hours or more was $1,200 per
fortnight. For employees working less than 20 hours per week will
be entitled to $750 per fortnight.
