Restart aid for companies and application by tax advisor possible

New start-up assistance is now open not only to solo self-employed persons, but also to small partnerships and corporations.

In the meantime, not only solo self-employed persons, but also partnerships and corporations can apply for the new start-up aid instead of the bridging aid III. A corporation is eligible to apply if it generates the majority of its revenue from activities that would be considered freelance or business activities for a natural person, was founded before May 1, 2020, employs no more than one part-time employee, and one shareholder works at least 20 hours per week for the corporation. In addition, applications for the new start-up aid can now also be submitted via the tax advisor; for corporations, this is even mandatory. The costs of the consultant are subsidized.
