Call for grants for self-employed individuals is open

3 April 2020

Today, Friday, April 3, the call for applications opens for the grant for self-employed individuals from the Government of Catalonia. At Autoocupació, we are at the disposal of all self-employed individuals to help them process the aid.

This is a grant in the form of financial aid, of up to 2,000 euros for self-employed individuals – natural persons – who can demonstrate a drastic and involuntary reduction in their turnover as a result of the effects of the coronavirus on their economic activity, and provided they are registered in activities that have been decreed closed during the state of alarm and do not have other alternative sources of income.

The grant will be awarded until the allocated budget of 7.5 million is exhausted and will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. The deadline for submitting applications will be open from April 6 to May 5.

If you are interested in Autoocupació’s support in processing the grant, you can contact us by sending an email to info@autoocupacio.org or by calling 934908860.
