Paycheck Protection Program

The extended Paycheck Protection Program application period is coming to an end so Compeer is no longer accepting any new applications.
 

PPP Forgiveness

The Treasury and SBA have created resources for borrowers and the following information should be of help to you as you plan what expenses to pay with the PPP Loan proceeds and any other actions you need to take to maximize your loan forgiveness. 
 
While Compeer is not yet accepting forgiveness applications, we ask that you review the SBA guidance as you prepare.
 
It is our desire to maximize the forgiveness of your loan. Please carefully read the following documents and guidance:

• We suggest you review the “SBA Application for Forgiveness EZ Instructions” to determine if you meet the qualifiers to use the “EZ” Application.
• We anticipate providing clients with a digital version of this application, however, this information provides a framework to use as you plan for the application process.
• Clients who received the PPP loan through Compeer will receive an email in the future with a link to use to complete a digital version of the SBA Application for Forgiveness.   
• Review the bottom of page 1 of the “SBA Application for Forgiveness Instructions” document for a Summary of Costs Eligible for Forgiveness.
• Depending on the complexity of your business, the SBA Application for Forgiveness (SBA 3508) may require very detailed records to process your application, specifically pages 4 and 5 of the “SBA Application for Forgiveness Instructions” document.
• It is especially important you carefully review pages 6 and 7 of the “SBA Application for Forgiveness Instructions” document, as it describes the documentation that will be required to forgive the loan.

This guidance from SBA is applicable to general businesses, but some of the specific guidance on documentation may not apply to farming or agricultural businesses. There may be certain situations where we may need to obtain guidance from SBA, which may delay the processing of forgiveness applications.
