As a self employed person I’d have no qualms about my tax bill rising. I would then expect to able to claim sick pay and unemployment benefit should the situation arise. I was out of work a few years back, filled in the relevant claim forms, waited a while before receiving a letter stating that I was entitled to £0.00 benefit, very helpful. Tax paid up to date as well as N.I. contributions, yet no help at all. It’s been a hard old slog sometimes over the years being self employed, we work whilst ill, raise our tax but give us the benefits as well.Originally Posted by CCFCC3PO
