Paycheck Protection Loan application deadline extended

President Trump signed legislation (S.4116) on July 4, 2020 extending the application deadline for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans from June 30, 2020 to August 8, 2020.

Paycheck Protection Program loans were enacted as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act.)

Certain businesses can apply for up to $10 million.  If certain requirements are met, the loan principal will be forgiven, tax free.  At this time, expenses paid using the loan proceeds are not tax deductible.

At this time $130 billion of $660 billion allocated hasn’t been committed for loans, yet.

If you haven’t been approved for a PPP loan and would like to apply, see your banker.
