A Full Service Employee Benefit and Compliance Solution for Employers

On Friday, SBA released guidance on PPP loan forgiveness and an application. I’ve attached the application. If you received a PPP Loan, you’ll want to review this carefully with your accountant or financial advisor.

SBA has now provided more information and options including:

  • Options for borrowers to calculate payroll costs using an “alternative payroll covered period” that aligns with borrowers’ regular payroll cycles
  • Flexibility to include eligible payroll and non-payroll expenses paid or incurred during the eight-week period after receiving their PPP loan
  • Step-by-step instructions on how to perform the calculations required by the CARES Act to confirm eligibility for loan forgiveness
  • Borrower-friendly implementation of statutory exemptions from loan forgiveness reduction based on rehiring by June 30
  • Addition of a new exemption from the loan forgiveness reduction for borrowers who have made a good-faith, written offer to rehire workers that was declined
