The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) reopened on January 11, 2021 for community financial institutions and January 19, 2021 for all other lenders. Applications for First Draw (both initial First Draws as well as increases to previously submitted First Draws) and Second Draw loans able to be submitted through March 31, 2021.
To review changes brought about by the latest round of stimulus relief, including who is eligible for an increase to a First Draw and requirements for applying for a Second Draw, this article should get you up-to-speed: Focus on Taxation: PPP Reopens for First Draw and Also Provides a Second Draw.
And just for ease, I've included all the main guidance and forms that I regularly look at so thought you might get a benefit of having it all here, too. SBA & Treasury have dedicated pages for PPP, but sometimes it's hard to sort through it all to get what you need. Enjoy!
