NEW PPP FUNDING DEADLINES |
|
|
|
In order to reach the smallest businesses, SBA will offer Paycheck Protection Program loans to businesses with fewer than 20 employees and sole proprietors only through Tuesday, March 9, 2021. President Biden has also announced additional program changes to make access to PPP loans more equitable.
This will give lenders and community partners more time to work with the smallest businesses to submit their applications, while also ensuring that larger PPP-eligible businesses will still have plenty of time to apply for and receive support before the program expires on March 31, 2021.
