Remove the £50,000 cap and extend the tax return deadline for the SEISS

Closed 23 signatures

What the petition asks

Take action and remove the 23/04/2020 tax return dead line and the £50,000 earnings cap so the self employed can have fair access to the SEISS grant.
The self employed have not only been adversely affected by the government lock down but have been adversely affected by the government locking them out of the SEISS grant due to late tax returns and the £50,000 earnings cap.
