ChamberConnect: Job Retention Scheme and New HMRC Guidance

ChamberConnect is a series of interactive virtual events which have been designed to support businesses and their staff through the current Coronavirus crisis.

These events will allow you to learn, ask questions and stay up-to-date on a variety of topics which will be affecting your business at such an uncertain time.

 

Tune in via video conference app Zoom to hear from Oliver Tasker, Partner at Wilkin Chapman, and Richard Hallsworth, Partner at Nicholsons Chartered Accountants.

HMRC updated their Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) guidance on 15 April which was swiftly followed by HM Treasury issuing a detailed Direction to HMRC under powers conferred by the Coronavirus Act 2020. This scheme is now live, and the portal to claim can be found here.

For the most part, the additional details in the Direction reflect the amended guidance, however there are some key differences that businesses need to be aware of.

During the webinar Oliver and Richard will be guiding you through the key headlines of the Direction and updated Guidance. Following the update there will be the opportunity to ask your questions live.
