Impacted by Coronavirus? Apply for a Forgivable Loan

April 8, 2020 By Nadeem Muaddi

The Hog Ring - Impacted by Coronavirus - Apply for a Forgivable Loan

To counter the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the US federal government is offering forgivable loans to small businesses.

The loans are part of the “Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act,” or CARES Act, which President Donald Trump signed into law on March 27.

Under the law, small businesses may apply for a “Paycheck Protection Loan” that is forgivable so long as certain conditions are met.

The interest rate is only 0.5 – 1.0% on a two-year loan backed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and Department of Treasury. Small businesses are allowed to borrow up to 250% of their monthly payroll, rent and other expenses — but the total loan amount cannot exceed $10 million.

Here’s the best part: The SBA will forgive the portion of the loan used for payroll, rent, mortgage interest and utilities for a period of eight weeks if a small business keeps all its employees and maintains their payroll levels.

Basically, it’s free money. The federal government is offering to cover your business’ overhead if you agree not to layoff employees or dock their salaries during this health crisis.

But you have to apply soon because the total loan amount is capped at $2.2 trillion. Once that money is completely tapped by small businesses, the program will close

For more information: Visit the SBA Website.

SEMA, which created a “Coronavirus Updates & Resources” page for the auto industry, will host a free webinar on April 9 at 1:00 pm ET to fully explain the program and answer your questions. Click here to register!

    Thank you for sharing information about the CARES Act forgivable loan. It’s great to know that small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic have access to financial support. For individuals looking for personal loans, the Navy Federal Credit Union is worth considering. They offer competitive interest rates and flexible repayment terms, making it easier for borrowers to find a loan that fits their needs. Their online application process is also convenient and easy to use. I recommend checking out their website https://fitmymoney.com/navy-federal-credit-union-personal-loans-review/ for more information on their personal loan options.
