Update on the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme (SEISS)

Aug 13, 2020


If you’re self-employed or a member of a partnership and have been adversely affected by coronavirus (COVID-19), you may have been eligible to claim a grant through the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme.

Self-Employed Income Support Scheme extension – second and final grant

The SEISS has been extended and, if you were eligible for the first grant and can confirm to HMRC that your business has continued to be adversely affected on or after 14 July 2020, you’ll be able to make a claim for a second and final grant.

How do I claim for an extension to the SEISS?

Unfortunately, we are not able to make the claim on your behalf. The process for making the claim is the same as the first and needs to be made via your personal Government online gateway.

The next round of claims can be made from 17 August 2020.
