BusinessDesk‘s Rebecca Stevenson on how to access the Resurgence Support Payment and other Covid-19 response provisions.
With Auckland thrown back into level three as the Papatoetoe cluster spreads and the rest of New Zealand now in level two, the government has activated the Covid-19 Resurgence Support Payment (RSP).
Alongside the resurgence payment is the bog standard wage subsidy, and businesses are able to claim both, if eligible.
The new round of wage subsidy from this outbreak is estimated to cost between $400 million and $500 million.
If your application is successful payments will come from Inland Revenue within five working days of approval. The resurgence support payments are not subject to income tax.
