Additional Resources:
The second round of the Paycheck Protection Program loans, which some are calling PPP2, will officially reopen on January 11.
Initially, the SBA will only accept what it is calling “first-draw” loans from small businesses that did not receive a PPP loan in the first go-round. Further, it will only accept those applications from lenders designated as “community financial institutions.”
The SBA includes the following lenders in that group:
- Community Development Financial Institutions
- Minority Deposit Institutions
- Certified Development Companies
- Microloan Intermediaries
The above lenders will be able to process loan applications and submit them to the SBA first.
On January 13, small businesses applying for a second PPP loan will be able to do so, but once again only with community financial institutions.
All other participating lenders will be allowed to make PPP loans “shortly thereafter,” the SBA stated, without specifying an exact date. This second go-round of PPP will run through March 31, according to the SBA.
The National Restaurant Association published a 7-page Guide to the Second Round of PPP This is a summary of all things PPP for the second round (as well as the new changes we secured for the first round), and it should serve as a great guidepost for you as you navigate your options.
