Claims can be made for those employed on 30 October 2020, provided an RTI submission had been made between 20 March 2020 and 30 October 2020 notifying a payment of earnings for the employee.

Claims for periods starting on or after 1 November must be submitted within 14 calendar days after the month they relate to unless this falls on a weekend, in which case the deadline is the next weekday.
