About the
Paycheck Protection Program 2.0
The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) provides loans to help businesses keep their workforce employed during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis. These loans are 100% forgivable if you meet the criteria. SBA is currently offering:
– First Draw PPP Loans for first time program participants
– Second Draw PPP Loans for certain businesses who have previously received a PPP loan.
What are the loan terms?
In general, all PPP loans have the following terms:
– 1% interest rate.
– Forgiveness applications accepted from when you use the funds until the maturation of the loan
– If not forgiven, a payback term of 5 years.
– Payments beginning 10 months after covered period (8-24 weeks from when you receive the funds)
– No collateral or personal guarantee required
– 2nd draw loans only: demonstrate 25% reduction in gross receipts in any quarter of 2020 when compared to 2019
What are the forgiveness requirements?
You can get 100% of your PPP loan forgiven if:
– Use the loan proceeds properly (60% payroll expenses and 40% other qualified expenses)
– You maintain employee count and compensation
