Businesses that register a new employee for a JAG will receive up to an additional $5000 ($2500 per year), if that employee is an eligible apprentice or trainee where the position is also deemed to be eligible for the JAG. The additional $5000 grant for apprentices and trainees will be backdated to 1 July 2016 so businesses that have already hired a new apprentice or trainee are eligible for the additional grant.
RevenueSA will be updating the JAG system to allow payment of the additional $5000 grant by 1 July 2017 or shortly thereafter. In the meantime, businesses can contact RevenueSA on 8226 2210 or jobsgrant@sa.gov.au to discuss the eligibility of their business for the additional grant.
