Revenue is deregistering a number of employers registered for the Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme (EWSS) who have not claimed the EWSS for pay dates after 30 June 2021.
Following a review of employers registered for the EWSS, Revenue identified that a significant portion of employers have not claimed the EWSS in respect of pay dates after 30 June.
Employers who no longer qualify for the EWSS are required under section
28B(5)(b) of the Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (Covid-19) Act 2020 to deregister for the scheme.
Revenue is issuing a notice to each employer and their agent to advise of their deregistration through ROS. These notifications are expected to arrive on Friday (22 October) or Tuesday (26 October).
Revenue has advised Chartered Accountants Ireland that where an employer's circumstances change, such that they are eligible for the EWSS again, they can reregister for the scheme through ‘My Services’ on ROS, and comply with the
Eligibility Review Form (ERF) procedures to facilitate timely payment of subsidies claimed for pay dates after the reregistration.
