I'm an employee of my corporation. I receive a regular paycheck and treat myself as an employee. I gave myself a week off last year and one sick day.

If someone finds the way this is done aside from the 'it exists' thing in the article, let me know. I'm looking too.

Are part-time and self-employed workers eligible?

Yes. Part-time workers will be paid the amount they typically earn in a two-week period. People who are self-employed — including gig economy workers like Uber drivers and Instacart shoppers — can also receive paid leave, assuming they pay taxes. They should calculate their average daily self-employment income for the year, then claim the amount they take as a tax credit (they can reduce their estimated quarterly tax payments in the meantime).
