The U.S. Small Business Administration has released a form of one page that simplifies the application for forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program loans. The form also contains newly updated forms that are in line with the latest stimulus law.
The COVID-19 aid package Congress approved last month renewed the PPP with $284 billion in funds for small businesses that want forgiven loans to help deal with the financial fallout from the coronavirus outbreak. The law required that the SBA release simplified forms within 24 hours after the bill’s passage into law. This was to simplify the process of applying for forgiveness. It also included conditions that encourage community banks to lend more, especially to minority-owned businesses who were unable to obtain loans last year.
“The Small Business Administration met the requirements to release the single-page form for PPP loan forgiveness by 24 days after the date of the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021,” wrote Ed Zollars, a partner with Thomas, Zollars & Lynch CPAs, on his Current Federal Tax Developments blog for Kaplan Financial Education. “The agency also issued new forms that were updated.”
