Why does the SEISS grant 5 only cover 3 months, while the equivalent furlough covers 5 months? 🤷‍♀️

I would ring to make sure its not a scam but I had to do that, I uploaded passport and bank statements, seems off but they are actually using dropbox for newly self employed. Deffo ring them first to make sure its not fake email.

Hi @MartinSLewis thanks for this. Will the amount we get be based on average income over the 4 years like last time or will it be on average based on our income from our 19/20 tax return?

I had to do this with SEISS 4 as I had only submitted my 19/20 tax return. It was genuine but I expect theres so many scams going around so be careful, maybe ring HMRC and check.

Wonder how they will look at our 2020/21 turnover if we haven't filed tax returns?

I spoke to someone at HMRC said i've been accepted and will get an email after 6th May, still waiting.. they said if I haven't heard anything still by next week to ring back. Such a joke considering the deadline is 3 weeks away!
Replying to @HMRCcustomers
same! set up in Dec 18, so they have included those 4 months and averaged them out. :(
Replying to @HMRCgovuk
@HMRCgovuk @HMRCcustomers I am still waiting to find out whether I am eligible for SEISS 4 grant, submitted all my information via dropbox, please can you let me know when I'll find out. Its been over 2 weeks now and over a year of no support.

Imagine being excluded from any previous support because it was only from March 2019 that more than 50% of my earnings came from self-employment yet now they have included all of my previous SE returns and so reduces my grant allowance by more than double #SEISS4

Same excluded by 2018/19 eligible 2019/20 But divided by two years so basically 80% of half of what I earn in a month and after a year of £0 that sucks

We are the new starters! Apparently meant to be 600,000 newly included yet they aren't just looking at our 19/20 full year of self employment they are including the few months we set up in 18/19 to lower the grant? #SEISS #SEISS4 SO deceitful, @RishiSunak is a barefaced liar.

why exclude us last year on the 50/50 rule but include our 18/19 tax now? Waiting over a year for support.

Was excluded last year as I set my business up in DEC 18 so filed a small end of year tax return. I've been fully self employed for 19/20 and filed a full tax return.YET they are now using the 4 months on my 18/19 to lower my grant by half when it only has a few months on #SEISS

I went full time self employed Feb 19 so this will no doubt be my exact situation too when I can apply on the 28th!! If we were previously excluded on the 50/50 why are they now including it in the calculations? #SEISS4 @RishiSunak #excludeduk😡 @MartinSLewis
