What if I've already applied for JobSeeker? Or I'm entitled to both?
The Federal Government has encouraged Australians not to withdraw their applications for Centrelink benefits, if they think they're eligible for wage subsidies instead.
Assistant Treasurer Michael Sukkar said the Government would work out which one they should receive.
"The ATO, Services Australia, where there are applications for both, obviously work out administrative arrangements to ensure that those individuals get the JobKeeper payment," he said.
"And at that point in time, all of the other applications will be removed.
"So, I would caution them not to withdraw an application at this point in time."
You can't be paid both JobSeeker and JobKeeper - it's one or the other ya KnobKeepers.
