Employers who availed of TWSS
If you were registered for TWSS then you are able to claim a sweepback EWSS payment for any employees who were not eligible for TWSS.
Generally speaking this would be for employees who were not employed by you in February 2020 (such as newly hired employees), and includes employees who are no longer currently employed by you provided they were paid at some point in July and August.
Employees who were eligible to receive a subsidy payment under TWSS are not eligible for the EWSS sweepback, even if you did not apply for a TWSS payment for them while you were availing of TWSS.
The subsidy and PRSI credit will be calculated based on each payment made to the relevant employees in July and August 2020.
Employer who did NOT avail of TWSS
If you did not register for TWSS but you have now registered for EWSS then you are able to claim a sweepback subsidy in respect of all employees paid in July and August 2020 regardless of whether they were eligible for TWSS or not.
How can I claim an EWSS Sweepback Subsidy?
An employer will be able to make a claim for an EWSS sweepback subsidy from Revenue by uploading a CSV file listing the PPSN and Employment IDs of all eligible employees.
Revenue will use this CSV file to calculate the subsidy and PRSI credit based on the wages that were submitted to them for July and August 2020.
CollSoft has released an update on Tuesday morning that will enable users to create this CSV file from their software.
This sweepback facility will remain available on ROS for one month until 14th October, so employers who have still not registered for EWSS will have time to obtain their tax clearance, register for EWSS and submit a claim.
After Revenue have processed your CSV file they will arrange for the payment of the subsidy to your nominated bank account, and the PRSI credits will be credited to your July and August monthly statements.
