SINGAPORE: The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore on Monday said that it has denied S$32 million in Jobs Support Scheme and Jobs Growth Incentive payouts to 1,300 employers for March.

Overall, IRAS has withheld S$85 million from 2,600 employers for further checks for March payouts under the JSS and JGI. Reviews have been concluded for more than 800 JSS payouts and close to 1,100 JGI payouts for the tranche. This is “part of IRAS’ anti-gaming efforts to ensure that JSS and JGI payouts are fairly and correctly disbursed”, the authority said.“These 2,600 employers make up about 2 per cent of all qualifying employers for the JSS and JGI payouts,” IRAS said.
