The U.S. Small Business Administration has released a single-page form designed to make it easier for applicants to complete the application process for forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program loans, as well as newly updated and revised forms that comply with the most recent stimulus legislation.
The COVID-19 relief plan that Congress adopted last month revived the PPP with $284 billion of funds for small businesses that want forgiveness loans to help them to deal with the effects of economic collapse from the coronavirus outbreak. The law required that the SBA provide simplified forms within the first 24 hours after the bill’s passage into law. This was done to facilitate the application for forgiveness. Additionally, it included conditions that encourage community banks to lend more particularly to minority-owned businesses who were unable to obtain loans in the past.
“The Small Business Administration met the requirement to issue the one-page form for the forgiveness of PPP loans by 24 days after the date of 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 issued the updated forms.”
