    Must be doubly hard for you as you get glum when LTD's get hammered and double glum when the self employed gets reamed.

    EDIT: Thrice bummed as you probably think you are employed by your LTD as well

    If he doesn't know he's not self employed I think he's no idea what he accepted and why. It certainly wasn't be a business owner cause he things hes' SE.

    And the grants. You had to have business premises for that but it was free cash.

    details are all here.

    Self-Employment Income Support Scheme fourth grant - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

    The self-employed or partners are eligible. Not company directors.

    Are you self employed (in the tax sense. ie, on your self-assesssment)? If so, yes, and meet hte other eligibility criteria, you can claim it?

    If not (eg, you work via Ltd), then you're not self-employed as far as the SEISS goes.

    Most here are via Ltd. Based on your other posts, you are too so are not eligible.

    started a topic SEISS? Anyone claimed?

    SEISS? Anyone claimed?

    As per title, really. I'm contemplating it if it's viable as I have only had about three months of actual work this FY year. Only paper it's way down from the previous FY.

    Claim the full amount?

    Thoughts?

Working...
