How to earn loan forgiveness

You may be eligible to have all or a portion of the loan principal and interest forgiven if you use the funds for certain qualifying costs incurred and payments made for payroll, mortgage interest, rent and utilities during the first eight weeks following the date the loan is made. You will have to provide documentation.

Because the SBA expects a high number of applicants for PPP loans, no more than 40% 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. The total effect on your PPP loan’s forgiveness-eligibility depends on a calculation that your funding manager can walk you through to give you the specific answer for your business.

Who can apply?

Small businesses with 500 or fewer employees whose principal place of residence is in the United States–including nonprofits, veterans organizations, tribal concerns, self-employed individuals, sole proprietorships, and independent contractors–are eligible. Businesses with more than 500 employees are eligible in certain industries.

For a second draw:

- Your business has fewer than 300 employees
- You can show a 25% revenue reduction during the first, second, or third quarter of 2020 relative to the same quarter in 2019
