PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM: What will lenders be looking for?

4/2/2020

0 Comments

 
Borrowers will need to complete the Paycheck Protection Loan Application (which is available HERE) and payroll documentation.

Lenders will also ask you for a good faith certification that:
1. The uncertainty of current economic conditions makes the loan request necessary to support ongoing operations
2. The borrower will use the loan proceeds to retain workers and maintain payroll or make mortgage, lease, and utility payments
3. Borrower does not have an application pending for a loan duplicative of the purpose and amounts applied for here
4. From Feb. 15, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020, the borrower has not received a loan duplicative of the purpose and amounts applied for here (Note: 
​There is an opportunity to fold emergency loans made between Jan. 31, 2020 and the date this loan program becomes available into a new loan).

If you are an independent contractor, sole proprietor, or self-employed individual, lenders will also be looking for certain documents  (final requirements will be announced by the government) such as payroll tax filings, Forms 1099-MISC, and income and expenses from the sole proprietorship.
What Lenders will NOT LOOK FOR: 
• That the borrower sought and was unable to obtain credit elsewhere. 
• A personal guarantee is not required for the loan. 
• No collateral is required for the loan.

About the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act 
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act allocated $350 billion to help small businesses keep workers employed amid the pandemic and economic downturn. Known as the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), the initiative provides 100% federally guaranteed loans to small businesses.

Importantly, these loans may be forgiven if borrowers maintain their payrolls during the crisis or restore their payrolls afterward. The administration has released initial guidelines; they are available at www.treasury.gov.

Small businesses and sole proprietors can begin applying on  April 3.
Independent contractors and self-employed individuals can apply beginning on April 10.
