PPP Loan Forgiveness

Loan Forgiveness Applications

PPP loans for $50,000 or less now have a streamlined loan forgiveness application: 

The two-page forgiveness application, Form 3508S, includes certifications from the borrower but does not require calculations to be submitted with the application. Applicants must submit documentation verifying forgivable payroll and non-payroll expenses. Borrowers are required to retain the documentation supporting their certifications for six years, but no submission is needed.
