When you make your claim you will require to have the following information available:
•Self-Assessment UTR
•National Insurance number
•Government Gateway user ID and password – if you do not have a user ID, you can create one when you check your eligibility online * Please visit our YouTube Channel to see how to sign up
•bank account number and sort code you want us to pay the grant into (only provide bank account details where a Bacs payment can be accepted)

You’ll have to confirm to HMRC that your business has been adversely affected by coronavirus.

If you claim the grant HMRC will treat this as confirmation you’re below the state aid limits.

HMRC will check claims and take appropriate action to withhold or recover payments found to be dishonest or inaccurate.
