U.S. Chamber of Commerce PPP Forgiveness Guide

The U.S. Chamber’s updated four-page  Guide to PPP Loan Forgiveness may be viewed and printed via the button below. This guide reflects recent substantive changes made by Congress and the administration to the US Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program which will provide borrowers with more flexibility. These changes include:

  • Extending the time to spend PPP funds from 8 weeks to 24 weeks;
  • Lowering the amount that must be spent on payroll from 75% to 60%;
  • Extending the deadline to restore FTEs and payroll from June 30, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020; and
  • Setting the repayment term for loans made after June 4, 2020 at five years.

The U.S. Chamber’s updated guide covers all of these changes, as well as others made in recent guidance issued by the Department of the Treasury. It is designed to help you more easily understand the forgiveness application process. However, note that while this guide reflects all of the most recent changes, it is possible that further changes could be made. The Chamber will continue to update this information and add it to its COVID-19 Resource Page as needed.
