• 29 January is the deadline to apply for the third SEISS grant
• HMRC's National Minimum wage unit being in charge of compliance for furlough claims
• Off-payroll working (IR35) was deferred in April 2020 but looks like it will start properly from 6 April 2021 - we will be sharing more information on this in due course
