Hundreds Of Local Businesses Received PPP Loans

July 10, 2020 at 12:24 a.m.


After the COVID-19 pandemic hit and businesses, churches and more closed their doors in March, the U.S. government provided more than $500 billion in relief funding.

Earlier this week, the government announced who received the money, and that included many in Kosciusko County and the surrounding area.

U.S. Department of the Treasury and Small Business Administration unveiled the partial list about businesses receiving Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans, which started in April and were scheduled to last until the end of June. The deadline was extended by the U.S. Senate recently to Aug. 8.

According to a news release accompanying the list, in releasing Personal Paycheck Protection loan data to the public, “SBA is maintaining a balance between providing transparency to American taxpayers and protecting small businesses’ confidential business information, such as payroll, and personally identifiable information. Small businesses are the driving force of American economic stability and are essential to America’s economic rebound from the pandemic. SBA is committed to ensuring that any release of PPP loan data does not harm small businesses or their employees.”

PPP loans are not made by SBA. PPP loans are made by lending institutions and then guaranteed by SBA. Borrowers apply to lenders and self-certify that they are eligible for PPP loans, according to the release. The self-certification includes a good faith certification that the borrower has economic need requiring the loan and that the borrower has applied the affiliation rules and is a small business. The lender then reviews the borrower’s application, and if all the paperwork is in order, approves the loan and submits it to SBA.
