Group Victorian estimated wages are the estimate of the taxable Victorian wages paid by all members of the group.
In the case where interstate wages are paid, the deduction is reduced to reflect the proportion of Victorian wages to Australian wages. This proportional calculation occurs in other states and territories as well, so the employer effectively receives a full deduction Australia-wide.
A key part of the Annual Reconciliation for interstate employers is the recalculation of deduction based on the actual wages. If you do not have a deduction appearing in the Lodge Monthly Return application and you are not an ordinary member of a group and your group estimates are not above $5 million, please contact us detailing this error.
Please contact us if you are a Designated Group Employer with group wages above $10 million and you are not receiving a mental health and wellbeing surcharge or COVID-19 debt temporary surcharge deduction.
