View ShowroomWith funding still available through the Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), U.S. Bank remains committed to helping all customers, as well as non-customers in the 26 states in which the bank has a retail presence, through the application process and will continue to accept applications through June 19.
The deadline will help U.S. Bank bankers and applicants to work through the documentation collection phase prior to June 30, the last day to receive SBA loan approval and qualify for support through the program. Completion of an application by June 19 is not a guarantee of funding.
While the SBA PPP first opened to applicants more than two months ago as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, recent action from Congress and the administration to pass the PPP Flexibility Act has made significant changes to both the origination and forgiveness processes to provide greater relief for small business owners. These changes include:
For a more detail on the changes, applicants are encouraged to visit the SBA PPP site or read the complete joint statement from SBA and the U.S. Department of the Treasury regarding the PPP Flexibility Act.
To date, U.S. Bank has secured funding approval for close to 91,000 applicants, totaling more than $7 billion and with the potential to impact more than 840,000 workers across all 50 states and the District of Columbia who are feeling the effects of the economic impact of COVID-19. More than 85% of loans provided by U.S. Bank were for less than $100,000.
