Rejected petition Recently Self-employed should now be eligible for a grant.

Approve a grant for recently self employed who have not yet completed a full financial year.

More details

All the other people are eligible to the grant or the furlough scheme apart from recently self employed (who have not yet completed a full financial year) who do not come under any support scheme at the moment. We do not know where the pandemic will take us financially, also do not know when it will end. It is unfair on people who have become Self-employed in this financial year.
