Provide COVID19 income support to the newly self-employed with HMRC Records.
I request an equivalent support grant for the newly self-employed working under the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS).
Under the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS), Contractors deduct money from registered subcontractors’ payments and pass it to HMRC on a monthly basis. These deductions are made as advance payments towards tax and national insurance and as such cannot be deferred.
This means that for these individuals there is already an existing record of Net Income and deductions paid for the 2019 to 2020 tax period.
Recently self-employed individuals are not eligible for the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme (SEISS) and outside of Universal Credit are directed towards facilities that have an adverse financial impact.
