We will provide simultaneous interpretation to assist non-English speakers. Indicate language preference when registering.

 

Small businesses and nonprofits still have time to apply for long term 30-year, low interest loans and small grants through the SBA’s Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) Program.

 

Join representatives from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) as they provide updates and share everything you need to know about these EIDL programs. Translated versions of the EIDL application will also be available for notetaking during the webinar.

 

General EIDL Program Overview:

  • 30-year loans for up to $500,000 at a 3.75% fixed interest rate (2.75% for nonprofits) with no pre-payment penalty
  • Two grant programs, the $10,000 – Targeted EIDL Advance and the $5,000 -Supplemental EIDL Advance are earmarked for businesses in low-income communities. To be considered for these grants, an organization must apply for a loan. Organizations can be awarded grants even if they are denied a loan or decide not to accept it

 

Expected updates to the EIDL Program include:

  • Raising the maximum loan amount from $500,000 up to $2 million while also increasing the aggregate loan cap up to $10 million
  • A waiver of affiliation rules (that mirrors that of the Paycheck Protection Program)
  • Funds can now be used to pay down prior commercial debt and make monthly payments towards federal debt (including principal and interest payments)

This year, your taxes are likely going to look a little different than they normally do. Last year, a lot of new programs were created to help small businesses. This means you’re most likely going to deal with situations you’ve never seen before including forgiven loans, grants, and unemployment benefits.

The Economic Aid Act passed on December 27, 2020 also extended the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) created under the CARES Act to include employers that received PPP loans, so any employer meeting ERTC eligibility criteria can now benefit.

Join us for this week’s Eastside Recovery Hub Webinar featuring representatives from the IRS and Falco Sult to learn more about how the different programs will impact your business taxes.

Speakers

  • Kristina Hudson, Executive Director, OneRedmond
  • Cathye Mason, Stakeholder Liaison, Internal Revenue Services (IRS)
