This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition SEISS for those who have been self employed for less than 3 years.
New small businesses who haven’t had a full years returns must have some sort of payment scheme to help.
More details
I have seen how badly small businesses have been effected by COVID 19 including myself. And those who haven’t got a full year of returns haven’t received any help what so ever. We must be treated equally to every tax payer. It seems this topic has been overlooked.
