The ATO has updated its advice on the JobKeeper "one in, all in" rule.

The Tax Office now says that if an employer opts to participate in JobKeeper, it should then nominate all the employees they are entitled to claim for. This means you cannot choose to nominate only some employees.

The ATO also says "The design of the JobKeeper scheme is that all eligible employees are paid the minimum of $1500 per fortnight and that the employer claims for each of these employees. Employers are not meant to pick and choose between their eligible employees."

This was a change from last week when the advice said those who choose to participate could then nominate the employees they are entitled to claim for.
