Self Employment Grant Scheme Calculation

[SnoozyLou]

Hi. I was wondering whether anyone knows the answer. I know they calculate your payment by averaging out your profits for the last 3 tax years, but if you earned more than 50% of your income from being employed for tax years 2016/17 and 2017/18, are your self employed profits for those years still used for the calculation, or is it just based on the profits for 2018/19?

If anyone knows I’d be grateful to hear from you. Can’t find the answer anywhere.

Not 100 percent sure but you could surely ask for the calculation once you are aware of an award. And maybe plan for the worst case scenario in the meantime.

I think that’s what I’ll do - thanks!
