Self-Employment Income Support Scheme Opens for Applications
13/05/2020
A government grant worth up to £7,500 will be paid on one lump sum to sole traders and freelancers who have been unable to work during the peak of the coronavirus pandemic across the UK.
The Government's coronavirus support scheme for the self-employed has opened for claims, ahead of the original schedule. Individuals or members of partnerships whose business has been adversely affected by COVID-19 will be able to apply for a Self-Employment Income Support Scheme (SEISS) grant worth 80% of their average monthly trading profits.
