The U.S. Small Business Administration has issued a one-page form that makes it easier to apply for the cancellation 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 of financing for small-scale businesses looking for forgiven loans to help deal with the financial fallout of the coronavirus epidemic. The law requires that the SBA provide simplified forms within 24 hours of the signing into law. This was to make it easier to apply for forgiveness. Additionally, it included conditions that would encourage community banks to make more loans, 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 the forgiveness of PPP loans by 24 days after the date of enactment 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 updated forms.”
