The business formalisation category has just been opened. Kindly visit the website to apply for it now.

@ Pasako, Folyze, desgiezd, Michael mercy, Fetula4u, Heitchtm, Jameselias etc.

The Payroll Support category has been closed this morning. Let's keep our fingers crossed and expect that the other sections will be opened soon.

Fetula4u:

Good Evening sir,hope it's still commercing tomorrow

Based on the information available on the platform, we're looking forward to that today. But bear in mind the application will not start until around 10pm tonight.

However it's best to apply any moment from 12am to 5am. The traffic on the site is usually less then.

You can follow the link below to kickstart the registration as soon as possible

Heitchtm:


Please permit me to ask, how do you get all this information?

I follow government grants and loans closely. You should do the same. Else you will be missing out on many opportunities that come from the FG from time to time

Heitchtm:

How about those that don't have their business registered? Which section do you think we should apply for?

Go for the business formalisation section. There are so many opportunities out there for you to take advantage of once you have successfully registered your business with the government

NightFood:
Please how legit is this?

It's very legit bro

Heitchtm:


Alright, I've checked, but it seems not all options are available. I'll check again maybe tomorrow.

Yes not all are available now. Check it on the 28th, other options will be available then

Michaelmercy:
Okay thanks sir, if I go for that Business formalisation, it's only CAC registration I'll be entitled to?? They won't give me any other financial support??

Yes that's the only thing you'll be getting

Heitchtm:


Thanks boss, I think they had to shut down the other site.

No they didn't shut it down completely. They just created a different url for the application

Michaelmercy:
On the website I only Saw MSME payroll support available, As a photographer and student with no CAC certificate, where should I apply?

You would have to wait until 28th of this month to apply. By then, the general category and business formalisation category will be open for application. For now it's just the Payroll support that is available for application.

As for the best option for you, I think you should go with the business formalisation category. Your business has a whole lot to gain if it is fully registered with the government. Trust me.

Fetula4u:


How much are day giving out?

N30,000 to N50,000 for employees.
N30,000 for Artisans and transport workers.
N50,000 general. This one can be received by anyone.

neoclassical:


Please, I don't know why Account numbers and BVNs of the school employees /teachers are needed under the business category. Will the money /salary be paid directly into teachers' bank account or through the employer /School account? Thank you

The way it is right now, it seems the teachers will be getting the money directly into their accounts.

If they don't go that way, then they will definitely use those information to monitor their accounts just to be sure they're getting the money meant for them

Fetula4u:

Thanks sir

You're welcome bro

Fetula4u:

can I apply without C.A.C?

Yes but only the business formalisation category and general category.

The application for those two will start on the 28th of this month. Save the date somewhere on your device.

Heitchtm, Jameselias and every other person reading this. The site is opening now.

You can click on this link to begin https://www.survivalfundapplication.com/

Heitchtm:

The site is currently down. But I'm sure their technicians are working on it now.

Check it later in the day. At night would be okay

Jameselias:
pls the site is not opening

Change your browser or wait and try it again later in the midnight.

The traffic would be less then. Around 4am is perfect.

Vokians:
Is it genuinely from the Federal Govt.

Yes it is. You can read more about it online

ehinmowo:


Can I help mom to register? Her busines is not registered though.

Yes you can help her. But since her business is not registered, why not register her under the business formalisation category?

She'll gain a lot from it in the long run

Olupristine:
I pray we no hear say site don crash sha

If the traffic becomes much it may. But I'm sure their webmasters are ready for that

Hamdy6:
but I can't see where private school teachers fit in

Private school teachers who intend to go into business can apply for it under the general category and business formalisation category

eojepa:
l am unemployed and without a business at the moment. What category do you advise i register please.

You can apply under the General category or go for the Business Formalisation category if you intend to register and start a business soon. However, I think the General category is best for you. You can decide on what to do with your N50K after you have received it.

Asquare84:

The application for Survival Fund, a grant scheme by the Federal Government of Nigeria has just began.

Here is a complete guide on how you can successfully apply and be a part of those to receive the monetary aid from the government.

Before we go on, let me briefly explain what the Covid-19 Survival Fund is all about and who is eligible to receive the grant.

The Covid-19 Survival Fund is a scheme created and monitored by the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment, the Central Bank of Nigeria and some Not-for-profit organisations in the country to assist several businesses affected by the Coronavirus pandemic.

The application began on the 21st of September 2020. That is today! It will continue until 15th of October 2020.

Under the scheme, eligible individuals and businesses will receive grants ranging from N30,000 to N50,000.

Before applying for the grant, it is important you understand that the business grant is in three different categories. This will help you figure out the right category for you to apply.

Below, you will the three categories listed and well explained.

The Survival Fund Categories

Business Owners/Employers Category

This category is for small business owners and employers of labour who are it difficult to pay salaries.

Provided that the salary of your fall within the range of N30,000 to N50,000, you can apply and have the government take over the payment of these workers in your business for 3 months.

However, you cannot register more than 10 workers per business under this category.

The number of businesses that can register for this is limited so you need to submit your application as soon as you can.

Artisans And Transport Workers Category

Under this category, artisans and transport workers whose application is successful, will receive N30,000 grant from the Survival Fund to support their business.

If you are a taxi driver, Okada rider etc, this is the right category to apply for. And you need to do that very fast as the number of slots available for this is not much.

Business Formalisation Category

The Business Formalisation Category is for persons who are interested in registering their business with the Cor porate Affairs Commission but do not have the money to do that.

Through the Survival Fund scheme, you will be allowed to register or incorporate your business with the agency free of charge. Yes, the government will take care of the cost for you.

The General Category

This category is for individuals whose businesses do not qualify for the first 3 categories and grant.

Under the general category, successful applicants will be given N50,000 each to help boost their businesses.

This is the best category for anyone to apply as the requirements are not much. However, you will need to submit your application as soon as possible to increase your chances of being among the first set of people to be considered for it.

The following are the requirements for applying for the Survival Fund scheme by the government:

Youngtekkey:

You can transfer funds without linking it to a card.You won't face any challenges transferring funds

Thanks bro!

Hello Youngtekky,

That second PayP account you created for cashing out funds from your other Prolly account, did you verify it? By verifying it I mean did you link it an ATM card, like you did the main one?

I'm asking cos I created a fresh PayP account to cash out from my UK Prolly. My plan is to transfer the funds as soon as it enter, to my main verified PayP account for withdrawal.

I don't want to link it with an ATM card for now since I already did that on the main account. So tell me if you faced any challenge with yours, if at all you didn't link it with a card before using it for the funds transfer.

AccessME:
I'm on UK account too buh to be sincere Survey Scarce for me since yesterday I never see 1 survey do. Don't know why it's like this o. Any UK account user experiencing same?

I don't think it's about UK or USA Account. I think it has to do mainly with your About You"
Yesterday being Sunday, I did like 4 surveys on my UK account while I did only 2 on the US. Even though it's weekend.

Today I've done like 2, one on each of them.
Don't lose hope, it will come. Just ensure you are connected most of the time!
