You DO NOT need to do anything in Infinet Cloud Payroll as our system will continue functioning as per normal. If you run a pay run during this period then we advise that you hold off lodging the STP report until after Thursday 2 January 2020. However, if you do lodge an STP report during this period then that's okay - it just won't be processed until after Thursday 2 January 2020 (see Additional Information below).
Please do not contact our support regarding STP submissions during this period.
Additional Information
