The jobseeker payment is slated to increase by $56 a fortnight on 20 September, when the $40 a fortnight increase announced in the budget will come into effect, as well as 2.2% indexation for cost of living.

PUBLIC BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION (PBI)

Posted by mteSA on 4 June 2023

Under the ACNC, a public benevolent institution (PBI) is a subtype of registered charity. PBIs concentrate on easing a variety of difficulties, including illness, poverty, disability, and distress. They include institutions like hospitals, hospices, services for people with disabilities, structures for the elderly, and low-cost housing for those in need.

Your business must be registered as Public Benevolent Institution with the ACNC and satisfy other requirements of the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).

Interested? Read more here on the ACNC website.
