Submit documents correctly
- In order to be eligible for wage support, it is important that the company has properly entered the a-melding register in the Aa register (register of employers and employees). This is section manager Lene Marie Ringså speaking at the Tax Office.
Report A is a monthly report from those who are required to provide information to NAV, the Norwegian Statistical Office and Tax Administration on income, working conditions and employee advance deductions, in addition to employer's contributions and corporate payroll tax.
Tax authorities carry out both mechanical and manual checks before making a payment. Therefore, it takes approx. ten days from the opening of the application portal. Until the first companies can receive payroll support.
Full openness to support
- Both the application and payment process are largely automated. Ringså says that there is full openness about which companies are supported under the program. The tax administration carries out inspections of companies applying for subsidies.
In addition to its own audit work, the Tax Administration also works closely with Økokrim. Police districts and other public agencies such as NAV, Customs Service, Norwegian Labor Inspectorate and seven crime centers.
