SBA Loans and Forgiveness Under the New Stimulus Program (CARES)

Written by Alan Greenwell | Mar 27, 2020 9:19:10 PM

As part of the new stimulus package signed by President Trump today, $349 billion is being allocated to assist small businesses with loans. The loans will be administered through the SBA 7a loan program via qualified commercial lenders and pertain to companies that have seen business decline as a result of COVID-19.

The objective is to help businesses impacted to ease payroll/overhead burden and bring back workers who may have already been laid off. The program can be retroactive to February 15, 2020, to help bring workers who may have already been laid off back onto payroll. The loan covers the period from February 15 to June 30, 2020.
