Care Workers: Visas
(asked on 21st March 2022) - View Source
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many live-in carers working under a Health and Care Worker visa have been denied payments under the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.
This question was answered on 4th April 2022
HM Revenue & Customs does not hold this information. The rules of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme included employees on any type of employment contract, including full-time, part-time, agency, flexible or zero-hour contracts, providing they met the eligibility criteria. Individuals who employed someone, such as a live-in carer, could claim if they met the eligibility criteria.
