EIDL Overview, PPP Overview and CARL Overview

Summary

This U.S. Small Business Administration slide deck, from its Houston District, gives overviews of Economic Injury Disaster Loans, the Paycheck Protection Program and the Community Advantage Recovery Loan (CARL) pilot program. It says that as of July 11, 2020 the SBA stopped processing EIDL Advance requests because program funds were fully allocated, and that EIDL loans carry a 3.75% rate for small businesses and 2.75% for private non-profits. It notes the PPP application deadline was extended to August 8, 2020 and lists seven changes made by the Flexibility Act of June 5, 2020, including a 24-week covered period and a 60 percent payroll requirement. CARL loans have a maximum of $250,000 and must be fully disbursed before October 1, 2020; the deck lists the CARL lenders as of 7/27/2020 and Houston resource partners.

                             Flexibility Act of June 5, 2020
                                                 (Seven Changes)
1. Extends the covered period for loan forgiveness from 8 weeks after loan disbursement to 24 weeks.
    • Borrowers who have already received PPP loans retain the option to use an eight-week covered period.


2. Lowers the requirement that 75 percent of a borrower’s loan proceeds must be used/spent for
   payroll costs during the loan forgiveness covered period to 60 percent for each of these
   requirements.

3. Provides a safe harbor from reductions in forgiveness, based on reductions in full-time equivalent
   employees, for borrowers that are unable to return to the same level of business activity prior to
   February 15, 2020, due to compliance with requirements/guidance between March 1, 2020 and
   December 31, 2020 by the:
         • Secretary of Health and Human Services
         • Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
         • Occupational Safety and Health Administration, related to worker or customer safety requirements related to COVID–19.

                                                        (Changes 4-7)

5.   Increases to five years the maturity of PPP loans that are approved by SBA (based on the date SBA
     assigns a loan number) on or after June 5, 2020.
     • For loans before that time; contact your lender to see if they will adjust to the 5-year term.

6.   Extends the deferral period for borrower payments of principal, interest, and fees on PPP
     loans to the date that SBA remits the borrower’s loan forgiveness amount to the lender
     • or, if the borrower does not apply for loan forgiveness, 10 months after the end of the borrower’s loan forgiveness covered period.
7.   Removed the restriction of participating in the deferment (employer portion) of social security
     payroll tax if you received a PPP loan. Now you can defer through December 31, 2020 and pay the
     balance deferred 50% on December 31, 2021 and 50% on December 31, 2022.

• Are faith-based organizations, including houses of worship,
  eligible to receive SBA loans under the EIDL program?
  • Yes, and we additionally clarify that faith-based organizations are eligible to

    a loan because of the religious nature, religious identity, or religious speech of
    the organization.
