The law not only provides additional loan relief for restaurants and other small businesses, but it caps the size of relief seeking businesses and simplifies the loan forgiveness process for applicants.

New Round Of Funding Is Available With The PPP2

Informally labeled as “PPP2,” the new round of funding is available to first-time borrowers and to those who previously received a loan.

There are many important details for business owners to learn about and a helpful article outlining the PPP2 guidelines in-depth is available at The Journal of Accountancy.

There are several call-outs in the bill that appear to be very beneficial to restaurants including:

  1. Employee eligibility by location similar to PPP1. (see discussion under Eligibility)
  2. Maximum loan amount of 3.5 times the average monthly payroll as compared to 2.5.
  3. Affiliation rules do not apply consistent with PPP1.

The Alliance’s co-Founder and President, Victor Rogers, owner of a marketing and brand development business that aids in event promotion and creative in Northern Virginia noted that, “small businesses across the nation are struggling and this aid will be crucial to their survival. We hope that by spreading this information, business owners will have their questions answered and seek the help they need.”

The application form and guidance will be issued in the days to come and loan applications could start rolling out the second week of January.

Will It Be A God Fight This Time Too?
