SMALL BUSINESS PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM (PPP)
The Paycheck Protection Program provides small businesses with funds to pay up to 8 weeks of payroll costs including benefits. Funds can also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities.
Fully Forgiven
Funds are provided in the form of loans that will be fully forgiven when used for payroll costs, interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities (due to likely high subscription, at least 75% of the forgiven amount must have been used for payroll). Loan payments will also be deferred for six months. No collateral or personal guarantees are required. Neither the government nor lenders will charge small businesses any fees.
Must Keep Employees on the Payroll—or Rehire Quickly
Forgiveness is based on the employer maintaining or quickly rehiring employees and maintaining salary levels. Forgiveness will be reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages decrease.
All Small Businesses Eligible
Small businesses with 500 or fewer employees—including nonprofits, veterans organizations, tribal concerns, self-employed individuals, sole proprietorships, and independent contractors— are eligible. Businesses with more than 500 employees are eligible in certain industries.
When to Apply
Starting April 3, 2020, small businesses and sole proprietorships can apply. Starting April 10, 2020, independent contractors and self-employed individuals can apply. We encourage you to apply as quickly as you can because there is a funding cap.
How to Apply
You can apply through any existing SBA 7(a) lender or through any federally insured depository institution, federally insured credit union, and Farm Credit System institution that is participating. Other regulated lenders will be available to make these loans once they are approved and enrolled in the program. You should consult with your local lender as to whether it is participating. All loans will have the same terms regardless of lender or borrower. A list of participating lenders as well as additional information and full terms can be found at www.sba.gov.
The Paycheck Protection Program is implemented by the Small Business Administration with support from the Department of the Treasury. Lenders should also visit www.sba.gov or www.coronavirus.gov for more information.
PROGRAMA DE PROTECCIÓN DE CHEQUES DE PEQUEÑAS EMPRESAS (PPP)
El Programa de protección de cheques de pago proporciona a las pequeñas empresas fondos para pagar hasta 8 semanas de costos de nómina, incluidos los beneficios. Los fondos también se pueden utilizar para pagar intereses sobre hipotecas, alquileres y servicios públicos.
Completamente perdonado
Los fondos se proporcionan en forma de préstamos que serán completamente perdonados cuando se usen para costos de nómina, intereses sobre hipotecas, alquileres y servicios públicos (debido a una alta suscripción probable, al menos el 75% de la cantidad perdonada debe haberse utilizado para la nómina). Los pagos de préstamos también serán diferidos por seis meses. No se requieren garantías colaterales o personales. Ni el gobierno ni los prestamistas cobrarán honorarios a las pequeñas empresas.
Debe mantener a los empleados en la nómina o volver a contratar rápidamente
El perdón se basa en que el empleador mantiene o recontrata rápidamente a los empleados y mantiene los niveles salariales. El perdón se reducirá si disminuye el personal a tiempo completo, o si los sueldos y salarios disminuyen.
Todas las pequeñas empresas son elegibles
Son elegibles las pequeñas empresas con 500 empleados o menos, incluidas organizaciones sin fines de lucro, organizaciones de veteranos, empresas tribales, trabajadores independientes, propietarios únicos y contratistas independientes. Las empresas con más de 500 empleados son elegibles en ciertas industrias.
Cuando aplicar
A partir del 3 de abril de 2020, pueden solicitar pequeñas empresas y empresas unipersonales. A partir del 10 de abril de 2020, los contratistas independientes y los trabajadores independientes pueden presentar una solicitud. Le recomendamos que presente su solicitud lo más rápido posible porque hay un límite de financiación.
Cómo aplicar
Puede solicitarlo a través de cualquier prestamista SBA 7 (a) existente o de cualquier institución depositaria asegurada federalmente, cooperativa de crédito asegurada federalmente e institución del Sistema de Crédito Agrícola que participe. Otros prestamistas regulados estarán disponibles para hacer estos préstamos una vez que sean aprobados e inscritos en el programa. Debe consultar con su prestamista local si está participando. Todos los préstamos tendrán los mismos términos independientemente del prestamista o prestatario. Puede encontrar una lista de prestamistas participantes, así como información adicional y términos completos en www.sba.gov.
El Programa de Protección de Cheques de Pago es implementado por la Administración de Pequeñas Empresas con el apoyo del Departamento del Tesoro. Los prestamistas también deben visitar www.sba.gov o www.coronavirus.gov para obtener más información.

About COVID-19
COVID-19 can spread from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth, including when an individual coughs or sneezes. These droplets may land on objects and surfaces. Other people may contract COVID-19 by touching these objects or surfaces, then touching their eyes, nose or mouth.
Symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough and shortness of breath. Symptoms may appear in as few as two days or as many as 14 days following exposure. Most people recover from COVID-19 without needing special treatment. The elderly and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems and diabetes are more likely to develop serious illness.
Take steps to protect yourself
Clean your hands often
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
Avoid close contact
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick
- Put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community. This is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.
Take steps to protect others
Stay home if you’re sick
- Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care.
Cover coughs and sneezes
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow.
- Throw used tissues in the trash.
- Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, clean your hands with a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
Wear a facemask if you are sick
- If you are sick: You should wear a facemask when you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. If you are not able to wear a facemask (for example, because it causes trouble breathing), then you should do your best to cover your coughs and sneezes, and people who are caring for you should wear a facemask if they enter your room.
- If you are NOT sick: You do not need to wear a facemask unless you are caring for someone who is sick (and they are not able to wear a facemask). Facemasks may be in short supply and they should be saved for caregivers.
Clean and disinfect
- Clean AND disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks.
- If surfaces are dirty, clean them: Use detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection.
