If you are interested in applying for Second Draw PPP Loans, or will be a first-time borrower, please take a look at the key requirements below. While these requirements are listed from one bank, they follow the requirements as stated by the SBA and Treasury, as other lenders will.
Key requirements for all applicants:
- You are an authorized representative who can borrow on behalf of the business.
- You have an active Business Checking account with your Bank.
- Must have been in business as of February 15, 2020 and your business hasn’t been permanently closed.
- If applying as a franchise, you will need to enter the SBA Franchise Identifier Code at the time of application. You can find that code at sba.gov/sba-franchise-directory. If your franchise isn’t on the directory, please contact your local SBA District Office to help you get it added.
- You should review the requirements and guidance provided by the SBA for complete information regarding the PPP. The SBA continues to release updated guidance. For the most updated PPP rules, requirements and other information, visit SBA.gov and Treasury.gov. You may also want to contact your accountant, attorney or other trusted advisors.
