Can I claim UIF for months unemployed before registering as a provisional taxpayer?

By Marc Sevitz · Updated

I have just started my own business - well, technically I just freelance. Does this make me a provisional taxpayer.

In addition, I want to claim UIF for the months I was unemployed and not working (Dec, Jan, Feb). Can I still do this even as a provisional tax payer?
