The U.S. Small Business Administration has released a single-page form that aims to simplify the process of applying for forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program loans, as well as newly updated and revised forms that conform to the requirements of the latest stimulus legislation.
Congress approved the COVID-19 relief plan last month that included $284 billion of financing to small businesses in need of loans. The funds were used to mitigate the economic effects of the coronavirus pandemic. It also included a requirement that the SBA to issue streamlined forms within 24 hours after the legislation was approved by the lawmaker to streamline the procedure of applying for forgiveness. It also included conditions that aim to increase the number of loans from community banks, particularly for minority-owned businesses that were unable to obtain loans in the past.
“The Small Business Administration met the requirement of releasing the one-page form for the forgiveness of PPP loans within 24 days of the date of the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021,” wrote Ed Zollars who is a partner of Thomas, Zollars & Lynch CPAs, on his Current Federal Tax Developments blog for Kaplan Financial Education. “The agency also published new forms that were updated.”
