Self Isolation Support Grant

The Self-Isolation Support Grant is now closed

The grant closed to new applicants on 5 January 2023.

If you booked a PCR test through the SISG portal on or before this date, you can apply for the grant up to 28 days from your positive PCR test result.

If you were eligible for the grant and were unable to apply within 28 days from your positive PCR test result, your local council may be able to consider your application. This is only if you were unable to apply within the 28 days because of something that you could not control.

If you have already applied for the grant but have not had a decision, please contact your local council directly.

If you want to appeal a decision

If you want to appeal a decision from your local council, you can ask the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman for an independent review.
