The 200 euro bonus will also be extended to self-employed workers and professionals without a VAT number

Good news for the 30,000 self-employed workers and the 50,000 Italian professionals without a VAT number (including 30,000 medical and surgery specialists) who had been excluded from the measure: these categories too will be able to benefit from the 200 euro bonus by making a request on the website of the Inps. The 150 euro bonus for self-employed workers and pensioners with lower incomes was added to the contribution, as provided for by the Aiuti ter decree. The provision was introduced to deal with the increase in energy prices and the increases due to the war in Ukraine. With this change, the possibility of receiving the contribution on the paycheck will be extended to a further 80 thousand workers, in addition to the other 22 million Italians who have already submitted the request.
