Grants and payments from schemes to support businesses during coronavirus (COVID-19) should be included as income when calculating your taxable profits in line with the relevant accounting standards.
If you are completing a company tax return on your client’s behalf, you will need to check the coronavirus grants they received; this is particularly important if another agent made a CJRS claim on their behalf, or they claimed a grant themselves from a local authority or another public body.
