    I’ll lock it now and let it fade into obscurity.

    But I wonder why you’ve chosen to dredge it up now.
    With no posts in that forum since April (I think) and today marking the end of furlough, should the whole thing be archived somehow?

    It is for all coronavirus/COVID-19 questions and posts. This will be a central repository for questions and business posts. Hopefully we won't get repeated questions spread across the forum.

    It is a Professional sub-forum and due to his knowledge in this area, PC is provided with special protection. I will ban anyone who looks sideways at him if he chooses to give advice.

    That is all - carry on...

    Hi there,

    I have emailed my local MP about loss of earnings and this was his reply. Could you please advise.

    Kind regards,

    Stephen


    If you are paid by PAYE you are able to get the umbrella company or employer to claim for you under the Job Retention Scheme.

    If you are self employed there is the self employed reimbursement scheme.

    You can find the info here: Claim for your employee’s wages through the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme - GOV.UK and COVID-19: support for businesses - GOV.UK

    The FSB is also very good Coronavirus (COVID-19): Advice and guidance for small businesses and the self-employed | FSB, The Federation of Small Businesses

    If you don’t fall into any of these categories than you can claim for Universal Credit.

    That’s the schemes at the moment.

    Good luck,

    Ian Murray MP

    Hi Stephen,

    With regards to the government subsidy, we are still taking advise on how this all works, as we want the very best outcome for all the employee’s.

    Please can I ask that you bare with us a little longer, while we gather all information needed, from all sources, so we do not incorrectly quote anything.

    I will be back to you asap, with all information we can give, and need, to best help you at this time, many thanks in advance for your patience.


    Kind Regards

Have they said (and have you asked) if that is just the minimum wage element of your salary or the total taxable components?

    Tell us what you've found out so far and we can try fill in the gaps. But, it will need your Umbrella to furlough you, otherwise its Universal Credit.
