Small business has been through a lot these past few years. So it came as a welcome reprieve to see some small business boosts in the 2022-23 Federal Budget.

These two new boosts aim to support small businesses to increase their technological capacity and upskill staff.

As a provider of Property Management tech and training, we are delighted to be able to assist our clients in the uptake of these business boosters.

Let’s show you how.

Small Business Technology Investment Boost

Small businesses (with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $50 million) will be able to deduct an additional 20 per cent of the cost incurred on business expenses and depreciating assets that support digital adoption.

What covers digital adoption?

Items such as portable payment devices, cyber security systems or subscriptions to cloud-based services.

Inspection Express and Paperless Office, along with our new tech Virtual Tours are the ideal cloud-based services to not only offer the best service to your tenants and landlords, but allow the uptake of this Government boost.

When can you apply?

This boost is relevant for expenditure between 20th March 2022 through to 30th June 2023.

So if you have been thinking about upgrading your system for a while, not may be the time to bite the bullet.

How can you apply?

Simply via your yearly tax return. For the 2022 – 2023 financial year, you can claim the full 120% in your return all in one hit.

Small Business Skills and Training Boost

Likewise, a similar scheme goes for training and upskilling.

Small businesses with an aggregated annual turnover of less than $50 million will be able to deduct an additional 20% of expenditure incurred on eligible training courses provided to employees.

When can you apply?

This grant applies to expenditure between 29th March 2022 and 30th June 2024 – an additional year.

How can you apply?

Again, simply via your yearly tax return. For the 2022 – 2023 or 2023 – 2024 financial year, you can claim the full 120% in your return all in one hit.
