PPP loan: What Does Lender Submitting Mean?

Is your PPP loan application status on Womply stuck in lender submitting and you would love to know what it means? We have got you covered.

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) is a loan designed to give small businesses a clear incentive to retain their employees on the payroll.

According to the SBA, Second Draw PPP loans can be used to help fund payroll costs, including benefits.

Funds can also be used to pay for mortgage interest, rent, utilities, worker protection costs related to COVID-19, uninsured property damage costs caused by looting or vandalism during 2020, and certain supplier costs and expenses for operations.

On May 28, 2021, The SBA informed lenders that no future PPP applications would be approved because all PPP funds had been used up.

Borrowers who applied for and got a PPP loan have 10 months to request loan forgiveness after the end of their covered loan period. Borrowers must begin making payments to their PPP lender when that period has passed.

If you live in a low-income neighborhood, have previously received an EIDL Advance for less than $10,000, or have previously applied but received no money due to a lack of available program money, you may be eligible to receive money up to $10,000.

You must have experienced a larger than 30% economic loss in 2020 compared to 2019 and have fewer than 300 employees to be eligible for the Targeted EIDL Advance.
