Here Query with GroupBy or GroupJoin throws exception is the now closed GitHub issue/discussion where I was trying to convince EF Core team to add GroupJoin translation. They refused to do that and opened the useless Query: Support GroupJoin when it is final query operator #19930 where I continue the fight for such translation. So please go there and comment/vote up for the full translation request.

You will also find there the workaround - instead of unsupported GroupJoin use the equivalent supported correlated subquery approach, e.g. replace

join allowance in RepositoryContext.Allowances.Include(y => y.AllowanceType)
    on enrollment.EmployeeId equals allowance.EmployeeId
into allowances

with

let allowances = RepositoryContext.Allowances.Include(y => y.AllowanceType)
    .Where(allowance => enrollment.EmployeeId == allowance.EmployeeId)
