What the petition asks
Change the eligibility criteria for the second and third SEISS grants to include those who have traded and submitted a tax return for the tax year 2019-2020.
The current eligibility criteria for the second SEISS grant does not include those who have traded and submitted a tax return for the 2019-20 tax year. This is unfair, as those who graduated in 2019 and have been trading for over a year are not currently entitled to the same support as those who graduated in 2018, despite working just as hard.
