Hectic day for me workwise. HMRC now have an online tool for their self-employment income support scheme which they launched today. People can check to see if they are potentially able to male a claim and register their contact details via that online tool. Doesn't say how much the grant is, that will be in the letter HMRC sends.
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/cl...ncome-support-scheme
has details about this.
Claim system not yet launched but I think the ability to claim will be spread over a few days from 13 May. That is presumably to stop a huge number of people trying to make claims all at the same time.
So I've been letting clients know about this today.
