The recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES) earmarks $350 billion in forgivable loans for small businesses. This initiative, the Payroll Protection Program (PPP), could be a game-changer for companies across the country. The maximum loan is a hefty $10 million, and any small business affected by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is eligible.
There are 30 million small businesses in America that employ almost 59 million people. 80% of the 30 million “small businesses“ in The United States are solo entrepreneurs, sole proprietors, 1099 contractors, etc. They are the backbone of the job market and the economy in the US.
The PPP is designed to provide a lifeline to small businesses, nonprofits, Tribal businesses, and veterans’ organizations with 500 employees or fewer. It’s important to note that for multi-location operations, the 500-employee limit is per location. The program offers partially forgivable loans to cover short-term operating expenses during this economic crisis.
