Starting Aug. 4 the SBA will now allow certain businesses with PPP loans of $150,000 or less to apply directly through a new SBA portal for the forgiveness of their loan. The SBA portal provides a single secure location for eligible borrowers to apply for forgiveness using an electronic equivalent of the SBA Form 3508S.
The Seattle District will host two webinars on Tuesday, Aug. 3 at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. where you will learn:
- Who is eligible to use the SBA PPP Direct Forgiveness Portal
- What information you will need
- How to create a login and apply for forgiveness
- Where to get help with your application
