Whether you’re already registered as self-employed and want more information about how best to manage your Universal Credit payments alongside it or are interested in becoming self-employed soon but don’t know where to start, this workshop will teach you how to navigate the system.
In this workshop we will cover:
- What it means to be self-employed and how to register as self-employed
- How to fill out a basic tax return, including covering tax exemptions and how expenses work for self-employed artists
- What being registered self employed means if you are in receipt of Universal Credit
- Key things to know if you are applying for Project Grants (Arts Council Funding) and are in receipt of Universal Credit
Please note this workshop is for people who are currently self employed or looking to become self employed very soon.
As always, the space will be open for one hour before the session starts.
