Hey Independent Contractors, Self Employed, and Gig Workers! In case you didn't realize, you are now able to get unemployment benefits for the first time thanks to the CARES Act and COVID-19 relief programs. This site is meant to be your guide to new benefits.
Hi PH!
We've been following the recent news about the CARES Act and the stimulus bill, noting how difficult it is to distill the information down into useable next steps.
For the first time ever independent contractors, gig workers, and the self-employed are eligible for unemployment benefits. Our goal is to help guide these essential workers through the process, and to keep our economy moving.
On returntowork.fyi, you can see:
1) Which of the major relief programs you are eligible for
2) Find your state and whether they are accepting applications
3) See the amount you may receive
4) Learn about applying for Paycheck Protection
Since most government websites are old, outdated, and difficult to find, our aim is to simplify the process for people who have never applied for government benefits. Let's fight the impacts of COVID-19, and help keep the economy moving!
