What do I need to know about this program?
As part of the CARES Act, now signed into law, small businesses and some non-profits will have access to SBA loans with higher loan amounts, no restrictions on use (except if seeking 100% forgiveness), deferred payments for 6 months, all fees being waived and the potential for forgiveness of up to the full principal amount through the 7(a) CARES Paycheck Protection Program.
How is this different from a Standard 7(a) Loan?
Principal Forgiveness
These loans provide an option for 100% principal forgiveness when specific requirements are met
Deferred Payments
All payments will be deferred for up to 6 months.
Allowable Uses
Loans can be used to cover payroll cost, rent payments or mortgage interest, and utility payments.
Higher Loan Amounts
The SBA has increased maximum loan amounts from the standard $5 Million to $10 Million.
Loosened Requirements
The new loan does not require a personal guarantee or collateral and has no minimum FICO requirements.
