The U.S. Small Business Administration issued a one-page application form that aims to simplify the process of applying for forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program loans, together with updated and revised forms that meet the requirements of the most recent stimulus legislation.
Congress approved the COVID-19 relief package in the month of March, which provided $284 billion of funding to small businesses that needed loans. This money was used to mitigate the economic effects of the coronavirus epidemic. The legislation required that the SBA provide simplified forms within the first 24 hours of the signing into law. This was to facilitate the application for forgiveness. The legislation also contained conditions to encourage banks in the community to lend more, especially to minority-owned businesses that had difficulty getting loans last year.
Ed Zollars, a partner with Thomas, Zollars & Lynch CPAs wrote that the Small Business Administration fulfilled the requirement to publish the one-page PPP form loan forgiveness within 24 days of the date of enactment under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 20,21. This was on the Current Federal Tax Developments blog of Kaplan Financial Education. “The agency also released updated forms.”
