Hello,
Please can someone help me. I have my own entertainment company classed as self employed. I have not worked since March. I have gratefully been able to take a break on some bills that are ending this month. I am receiving universal credit only, I live alone and have a mortgage. I cannot afford my bills and the universal credit is the bare minimum. I am not eligible for Seiss and i can not afford a loan.
Can someone please advise me or give me some hopeful suggestions.
Many many thanks in advance for any help, I am desperate, devastated as iv build my business to a success for 6 years and there is no light at the end anytime soon.

Yes a successful business for 6 years not entitled to SEISS ???
Cash only Guv0 -
Grumpy_chap said:Why can't you get SEISS?OP says they have their own entertainment company. so may well actually be a sole company director rather than self employed.(Although that would then lead into the question, 'Why couldn't you claim furlough ?')2

Well great lot of help you lot are ans some of you rude.
To Answer the questions..
I worked abroad for a year and i also had a year where i worked full time on PAYE so not entitled to Seiss.
Yes i will have to get a job of course if that i my only option but im looking for options and advice duh!!! my point is i think its a disgrace i cant work anymore because the goverment wont allow me to, yet allow every other industry too get back and wont encourage or compensate our industry.
