Process Overview

Eligible Infinet Cloud Payroll customers can manage employee nomination and quarterly lodgement of minimum hours test requirements directly from Infinet Cloud Payroll via STP.

This process requires the Customer to install a bundle containing specific pay component sub types and scripts that can then be used for processing 'One-off' pay details relevant to JobMaker reporting.

  1. Install the JobMaker bundle into your account
  2. Nominate Employees

2. JobMaker Hiring Credit Nomination

Employers must use an STP payroll event to nominate employees eligible for the JobMaker Hiring Credit to the ATO.

JobMaker Hiring Credit Cessation

If an employee nominated for JobMaker Hire Credit ceases employment within 12 months of being hired the employer must report a 'Payee Cessation Date'.   When you terminate an employee the termination date that is entered in your termination pay run will in turn be reported to the ATO to confirm employment has ended.   There is nothing additional that is required other than following the standard ICS Termination Process.
