The Paycheck Protection Program is ground-breaking and has been a lifeline to thousands of businesses through the pandemic. Created by the CARES Act, the program provides loans for employers who have been affected by the pandemic. At its most basic level, the money is meant to assist a business in keeping all its employees working and paid through the hardships of the pandemic. After a period of 10 months or less, PPP loan borrowers can apply for complete or partial forgiveness. Full forgiveness is especially likely for smaller PPP loans.
