Does anyone have much info on this grant from the government. If we carry on working do we still get help or is it if your out of work? Doesn't make sense if we dont get help going to work then everyone will just not work and get the grant killing the economy more?? Does anyone know the facts?

The guidance I read the other week was that self employed could claim wether you work or not
The clause I read the other day stated ...

If you have lost trading profits due to covid19

So if you have worked through it you haven't lost profits ??

Below is information from .gov website........


You can claim if you’re a self-employed individual or a member of a partnership and you:

  • have submitted your Self Assessment tax return for the tax year 2018 to 2019
  • traded in the tax year 2019 to 2020
  • are trading when you apply, or would be except for coronavirus
  • intend to continue to trade in the tax year 2020 to 2021
  • have lost trading profits due to coronavirus
You will need to confirm to HMRC that your business has been adversely affected by coronavirus. HMRC will as usual use a risk based approach to compliance.

Anyone got a premises? I’ve got a tiny lock up that costs me £100 a month. I don’t pay business rates as it comes under the small business rates relief scheme. Done the online application on my local councils website and received 10k yesterday into my bank.

Didn’t ask them for it. They offered
I’m supposed to let my customers that I’ve worked for for years down, so they can get someone else, leaving me to find new clients later. What a great idea!

If your earning your money everyday why take the grant ? Isn’t it for people who are staying at home and not earning ?

Well I’m saving hard to buy the property I currently rent. My comment the other day about getting a new van was just to wind you up. Don’t need a new van. I’m working safely on my own. Not hurting anyone. Gonna have to agree to disagree.

I use the 70% alcohol wipes I keep in the van to wipe the pump, as well as wear latex gloves, and pay at the pump. Next question.
