Still without work due to COVID-19 and payment break expiring soon

mbehery

I have and I am sure like many have been impacted finding work to resume a 'normal' life with regular income. Now my holiday/payment breaks are due to expire in July which is just round the corner. Anyone got any ideas/suggestions with what to do or ideas?
Thanks

What is your situation? Have you checked benefit entitlement?

To take a pragmatic look at things the start of July is still over a month a way and the speed of change is fast, it looks like even pubs and restaurants will be open again by then so you might well find you are back in your normal work by July.
Mortgage payment holidays can be extended for a further three months and other financial services such as loans and credit cards are offering reduced payment plans with some utilities even offering to suspend payments for several months.
On top of that there are jobs available, although the tens of thousands of supermarket and contact tracing jobs are no longer recruiting there are still jobs to be had. It is a case of applying for jobs in the short term as well as making sure you are claiming what you can.

As Calcotti has pointed out have you had a look at the benefit entitlement calculators such as entitled to or turn2us? They will give you an idea of what you may be eligible for.

I would try in the meantime to see if you are able to sort out things that maybe on finance, credit card and extending the mortgage holidays to allow breathing space if needed.

You give very little for anyone to give really helpful suggestions.
What is 'normal work'?
What is your current situation?
Are the payment breaks extendable?
As others have said, still over a month until July so time to put a plan into place and avoid catastrophe.
