I helped someone apply for EIDL on 04/05, he just got funded.
The money comes from Treasury. Thats why congress approved $310 Billion
Loan or advance?
False. The bank funds it and the treasury forgives it or backs it.
Not really. It was approved based on 2019 1099 and 2018/2019 schedule C, not payments made.
Backs it means they just cover defaults? If these loans have no interest for a while, the banks are shelling out money for their underwriting commission? That doesn't sound right to me.
I understand, but how do you usually pay yourself? Do you have one account for business and personal? Or do you have separate accounts and you make occasional withdrawals from your business account to your personal?
Licely 12:24Good Afternoon Zalc, Dime was one of the first banks to open the application process for the Paycheck Protection Program. Due to the overwhelming response, we are temporarily pausing the program to new applications. With this decision we can devote our full attention to the applications received to date, to ensure timely processing.
Why are so many more people here getting funded during this round?I wonder what really happened in round 1...
One personal account...
That's a toughie... SBA hasn't published much yet on contractor forgiveness- hopefully they do so soon.
Now the big question is the funding. I was approved by Chase and they have no money issues. I'm thinking how the smaller banks will fund this, they need to go out and borrow money, not sure how that process works, but Dime seems already taking SO long to fund. I also think Cross River doesn't have unlimited funds. Hope they don't fund you after the forgiveness period is over :-)
AP dead or Obi dead?
Thanks! I'm hoping there are many people in my situation so I don't fall through the cracks. Being on the line for the full PPP amount (and potentially interest) will make me regret taking the loan.
No interest accrued in first 6 months and no prepayment penalties so as a worse case scenario you just repay the whole thing.
I'm going to be spending the money hoping it gets forgiven...
