Paycheck Protection Program Goes into Overtime
Q: When is the new deadline for PPP loan applications?
On Saturday July 4, 2020, the President signed the “PPP Extension Act” into law. On Monday, July 6, the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program resumed accepting loan applications.
As the program’s initial deadline of June 30 approached, many small business owners wondered if there would be another chance to access the remaining funding put in place for the Paycheck Protection Program by the CARES Act. The approval and enactment of the “PPP Extension Act” has provided small business owners with this opportunity.
The new deadline for PPP loan applications is August 8, 2020.

Business owners who are still in search of a SBA approved lender can utilize the SBA’s Lender Match Tool, which guarantees contact from a qualified lender within two business days of submitting information on the platform.
Business owners who are interested in applying for, have applied for, or have obtained a PPP loan should familiarize themselves with the latest guidance released by the SBA and the U.S. Department of the Treasury based on the enactment of the “PPP Flex Act” on June 5, 2020.
