The Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme (EWSS) will replace the Temporary Wage Subsidy Scheme (TWSS) from 1 September 2020.

Revenue confirmed that eligible employers, or the payroll or tax agent acting on their behalf, can now register for the EWSS through Revenue’s Online Service, ROS.

Revenue has emphasised that registration applications will only be processed if the employer:

  • is registered for PAYE/PRSI
  • has a bank account linked to that PAYE/PRSI registration, and
  • has tax clearance.
