SEISS Grant for self-employed workers in 2019-2020

Petition Details

Those employees who's only income was from self-employment in the year 2019-2020 should be considered for SEISS Grant.

Additional Information

if they started their self-employment in the year 2018-2019. And they have filled their return 2018-2019 before the due date. Regardless if their self-employed income was less then other income on 2018-2019.

They have worked as self employed in 2019-2020. So they should be considered self-employed. they have worked more than 12 months as self-employed and there is no definition or minimum time frame to consider people as self-employed.

So its unfair to people whos only income was from self-employment in the year 2019-2020 and they started their self-employment in the middle of the year 2018.
