Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and Self-Employed Income Support Schemes extended

Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced on 12 May that the CJRS scheme will be extended until the end of October. The scheme will continue in its current form until the end of July with the Government paying 80% of employees wages up to £2,500 a month. For account purposes the amounts received should be credited to a “grants received” account, and this will therefore increase taxable profits of the business.
