New Opportunity for Grants for the Self Employed Individuals in Andalucia
Tuesday, March 1, 2011

 

 
 
We have some good  news for self employed individuals registered in the Andalucia area. Junta de Andalucia has programmed a new grants´ “convocatoria” for self-employed individuals registered in the last 6 months and for individuals registered between minimum 1 year and maximum 3 years.
 
In order to make a quick summary of this Law, we have to mention “La Ordén de Consejería de Empleo” of the 26thof April 2010. This law has allowed, until now, self employed individuals in the Andalucia area to start up and develop their business, and is an amazing opportunity to be supported in their new ventures.
 
In the previous “convocatoria” in January 2010, in order to apply for a self employed grant, the first step was a business plan and application with the CADE or the Consejería de Empleo, and only after that, you could register with the authorities. Later in the year, this changed and individuals registered self employed in the last six months previous to the “convocatoria”, had the right to apply for a grant to cover their start up expenses. This registration was established to take place in March and September of each year.
 
Now, in 2011, we have a similar situation. There are 2 opportunities for self employed individuals to get grants in Andalucia.
 
1.       Individuals registered self employed for a minimum of 1 year and maximum of 3 years.
 
An amount of 4000 euros will be allocated to finance the expenses and investments made by the self employed individual in the last six months previous to the “convocatoria” of grants. The expenses deductable will be registered in the “Orden TIN/2965/2008”, of the 14th of October, determined by the European Fund, during 2007-2013.  

 
BENEFICIARIES
Individuals registered as self employed for minimum 1 year and maximum 3 years.
Any individual, registered self employed, exercising an economic activity, on its own, with residency and fiscal address in Andalucia, and with up to five employees registered, can qualify for the grant.

2.       Individuals registered self employed in the last six months, up to the end of February 2011. 

An amount up to 11.000 Euros will be allocated, depending on the following requirements:
