Self Employed Grant
Emily Kilshaw • July 14, 2020
Claim second SEISG from 17th August 2020
The scheme has been extended. If you were eligible for the first grant and can confirm to HMRC that your business has been adversely affected on or after 14 July 2020, you’ll be able to make a claim for a second and final grant from 17 August 2020.
The scheme allows you to claim a second and final taxable grant worth 70% of your average monthly trading profits, paid out in a single installment covering 3 months’ worth of profits, and capped at £6,570 in total.
As with the first grant HMRC will contact you if you’re eligible.
We will work out your eligibility for the second grant in the same way as the first grant.
You can make a claim for the second grant if you’re eligible, even if you did not make a claim for the first grant.

HMRC has postponed the £100 penalty for late submission of 2019/20 personal tax returns, as long as the return is submitted by 28th February 2021. However they will still charge interest on any tax which is due. Therefore, if you haven't already done your personal tax return, the sooner you get it done and submitted the better.
