Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) Loans

The federal government has stepped up to help small businesses across the United States with Paycheck
Protection Program loans. With this program, qualified applicants can receive up to 2.5x their

How are Paycheck Protection Program Loans Calculated?

PPP loans are up to $10,000,000 and are calculated based on 2.5 times your business’s (or organization’s) average monthly payroll costs. Payroll costs include compensation, as outlined above, along with other payroll-related costs like retirement contributions, state and local taxes on payroll, payment for vacation or paid leave, group healthcare costs, and allowances for separation or dismissal. For a comprehensive outline of what is used and excluded, you can email us and get a copy of our PPP calculator!

Are SBA PPP Loans the Same as Disaster Loans?

PPP loans differ from Economic Injury and Disaster Loans (EIDLs). PPP loans are available to all US businesses based on the requirements above.

EIDLs are also available for small businesses in designated areas (right now that’s classified as all US states and territories) that have suffered an economic hit because of the COVID-19 pandemic, though the requirements are more stringent. Unlike PPPs, EIDLs/disaster loans must be repaid in full.

Do You Have to Prove Economic Injury?

With an EIDL, or disaster loan, small businesses need to prove they’ve experienced “substantial economic injury.” Unlike disaster loans, PPP loans under the CARES Act are funded with the presumption that your business has experienced the negative impact of COVID-19. They are not tied directly to economic losses suffered as a result of the disaster.

Paycheck Protection Program Forgiveness

PPP loans are eligible to be forgiven, up to 100% of the loan principal if the funds are used appropriately. US Fund Source is here to provide you with the information you need to know about what qualifies, how to request loan forgiveness, and how to calculate your potential PPP loan forgiveness.

Costs and Payments Eligible for Forgiveness

Any costs incurred in the first 8 weeks after you receive your loan of the loan under these set categories are eligible for forgiveness:

Calculating Your PPP Loan Forgiveness Amount

The simple answer is, to be eligible for loan forgiveness, you must maintain your payroll levels and employee headcount for 8 weeks following receipt of the loan. You must be able to document that your PPP funds were used on the eligible expenses listed above. Further, because the SBA expects a high number of applicants for PPP loans, no more than 25% of the forgiven amount can be for non-payroll costs (i.e., mortgage interest, rent, and utilities). If your business has laid off employees, that will also affect how much your loan can be forgiven. 

 

Please reach out to your US Fund Source representative if you want want additional guidance specific to your business. 

How to Apply for PPP Loan Forgiveness

To receive loan forgiveness, a borrower must submit a request to their lender with documents verifying payments (on mortgage interest, rent, and utilities) and payroll (number of employees, pay rates, including IRS payroll tax filings and state income, payroll, and unemployment insurance filings). These documents must be certified from a representative of the business that the information is true.

When Do Paycheck Protection Program Loan Payments Start?

For portions of the loan that are not forgiven, payments are deferred for the first 6 months. But keep in mind that interest will accrue during the 6-month deferral period.

Can You Get a PPP Loan If You Have Other Loans?

Yes, you can qualify for a PPP loan even if you already have other loans, including other SBA loans. However, if you received an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) between January 31, 2020 and April 3, 2020, you will be required to use your PPP loan to refinance your EIDL loan. We believe this is advantageous given the lower interest rate and potential forgiveness of the PPP loan.
