Coronavirus Emergency Loans

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security or the CARES Act was signed on March 27th, 2020. One of the largest section is the Paycheck Protection Program which sers aside $350 billion for small businesses to continue keeping workers employed. The Paycheck Protection Program will provide 100% federally guaranteed loans. These loans can be forgiven if small businesses keep their payrolls or reinstate them afterwards. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has issued guidelines to help small businesses or self-employed individuals prepare for filling a loan.
