Help for those both employed and self employed

Coronavirus - Govt info seems unclear about support available for these individuals.

Didn't find your answer?

What Government financial support is available for those individuals who are both employed and self employed? The information so far is vague. Thanks.

Thinking aloud...……..

If they are employed they get 80% with a £2.5k cap. If they have more than one employment they get more allowances.

If they are s/e they get help there too, if they meet the criteria - including the income cap and most of their income coming from s/e

So with £25k s/e and two £10k jobs you might end up with £36k of support

I believe that funding would only be at that level if the schemes were continued for a whole year!!!

If more than 50% of the total income for 2018/19 came from employment rather than self employment then you are not eligible for the self employment grant.

The detail is not yet there....there might be a restriction to one lot of £2,500 from all sources, but who knows.
