Congratulations, You got your PPP Loan, What Next?

  Congratulations, you filed all the Paperwork for your PPP Loan and you have received your Grant and Loan. Now is the time to start planning on how you are going to ensure you use the Funds correctly. During this Pandemic, the SBA has made efforts to make funding accessible to Small Businesses and it is important to use the Funds appropriately. 

    The PPP Loan is designed to provide a direct incentive for Small Businesses to keep their workers on Payroll. SBA will forgive Loans, if all employees are kept on the Payroll for eight weeks, starting from when the Loan is received and the Money is used for Payroll, Rent, Mortgage Interest Payments or Utilities. It is important to note that not more than 25% of the forgiven Amount maybe for Non-Payroll Costs.
 
  Now, that you have your Loan and have identified the time period, it's time to calculate the monthly payroll cost, to ensure your Loan Forgiveness. The Items below are the Payroll Costs to include, as well as the Non- Payroll Costs. 
 
        Payroll Costs: 
 1)   Salary, Wages, Commissions, Tips and Bonuses.
 2)  Owner's Draw Payments for Sole Proprietors.
 3)  Severance Pay
 4)  Paid Leave Payments (No FFCRA Paid Leave)
 5)  Employee Payments for State and Local Taxes.
 6)  Employee Payments for Federal Income Tax and FICA.
 7)  Employee Contributions to Retirement and Group Health Plans ( Health Insurance & Dental Coverage).
 8)  Payments of Interest on Mortgage Obligations. 
 
  Non-Payroll Costs: 
 1)  Contractor Pay
 2) Payroll Reimbursement.
 3) Owner's Draw Payments (Except for Sole Proprietors).
 4) Workers' Compensation Fees.
 5) Fringe Benefits. (Commuter Benefits, HSAs).
 6) Ancillary Benefits (Short-Term Disability, Group Life Insurance).
 
  Important Notes:
 
  • The SBA recently clarified that the 8 Weeks Period begins on the date, the borrower receives the disbursement of the Loan, and regardless of whether your Business has resumed operations.
  • No More than 25% of the Forgivable Amount of a PPP Loan can be attributable to Non-Payroll Costs.
 
   Actions to take immediately:
 
  • Open up a Separate Bank Account and Deposit the Loan Amount in the Bank Account. It would make it easier to track the use of the funds precisely. 
  • Order Check Books for this Account and Ensure the Check Payment is made from this Account.
  • Hire Back Employees and Restore Headcount and Wages to Prior Levels.
  • Maintain a Paper Folder or Electronic Folder for all PPP Expenses and Cancelled Checks. Remember you have 8 Weeks of Funding to track these costs.  Not 2 Months but 8 Weeks, from when you got the Funding. 
  • Ensure to pay your Rent on time. Get your Lease Agreement and Have it ready to produce, when it is requested.
  • Ensure to pay your Utility Bills on time and save all Bill Payments.
  • Make Sure to Pay ALL Interest on your Loans when Due. Although, Principal Payments are required, you are required to keep track of the Interest Payments, either with Statements or an Amortization Schedule. 
  • Keep a Record of the Exact Amount of Health Benefits and Pension Contributions due for the 8 Weeks. Ensure to find them, before the end of the 8 Weeks.
  • Get a Bookkeeper, CPA and Accountant NOW. 
 
         The PPP and EIDL Loan Program is one of the Greatest Investments, you have ever made as a Small Business. The Secret is knowing how to play by the Rules and is essential in using it to your Best Advantage.
       
     You may be proud of the fact, that you do your own Tax Filings, Payroll and Bookkeeping, but the PPP Loan and EIDL Loan is not an area, where you want to risk making a wrong decision. The Guidance for the PPP seems to be changing daily. Be Aware that Little Mistakes can cost you Big.  Whatever you do, be sure to do it under the Guidance of a Financial Advisor/Bookkeeper to help you maximize your Benefit from the adherence to the PPP Loan Terms.

                                    Where is My Stimulus Check? 

  Where is My Stimulus Check seems to be the Latest Question on our Minds. Tens of Millions of Americans started receiving their Payment by Direct Deposit on April 15th. If you're having trouble getting your Payment. Log on to the IRS Online Portal " Get My Payments" to track your Payments and input your Direct Deposit Information. 

  The IRS also opened a short window up to 12:00 p.m., Wednesday, April 22nd 2020 for Individuals receiving Social Security, Survivor or Disability and Railway Retirement Benefits, to use an Online Tool to receive the $500 Stimulus Payment Per Dependent Child. 

  Those who miss this Deadline to register their Children will still get their Payment of $1,200 per Individual, but will have to wait till Next Year to get the additional $500 per Independent Child Under 17.

stimuluschecks

   We are aware that these are unprecedented Times and there are a lot of challenges during these Period. We are encouraging you to rise above this Situation and remain confident, that you will come out Stronger, Bigger and Better off. 
 
   President Trump just signed off a $2 Trillion Relief Bill, which will come in form of Stimulus Checks to offer Assistance to Millions of American Household, affected by the Corona Virus Pandemic. We are aware that most of us have Questions  and we want to enlighten you more about, what in this for us.

   The Following are the Basic Things to know about the Stimulus Checks:

  •  Your Eligibility for the Stimulus Check is based on your 2019 Tax Returns as well as your Adjusted Gross Income. If you are yet to file your 2019 Taxes, the IRS will use the 2018 Taxes to determine your Eligibility. The IRS will only use your 2018 Tax Returns, if you have not filed your 2019 Tax Returns. 


  • You must have a Valid Social Security Number to be eligible for this Check. People with  ITIN Numbers and Tax ID Numbers will not be issued Checks.     


  • The Check Values are based on 3 Plans Income Qualification: 

  1. SINGLE TAX FILERS - The Adjusted Gross Income Qualification is $75,000 or Less. This Category will get a $1,200 Stimulus Check.     
  2. HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD FILERS - The Adjusted Gross Income Qualification is $112,500 or Less. This Category will get a $1,200 Stimulus Check.
  3. MARRIED FILING JOINTLY - The Adjusted Gross Income Qualification is $150,000 or Less. This Category will get a $2,400 Stimulus Check.        

       It is important to note that if the Income Exceeds the threshold, the Amount will be reduced on a Sliding Scale. 


  • For Each Dependent/Child, that is Under the Age of 17 Years and Below, you will get an Additional $500 Check, for each Child. Please Note, that this is as long, as the Child/Dependent was stated in the Tax Returns, at the time of Filing. 


  • If a Parent claims the Dependent/Child as a Dependent and this Child/Dependent files their own Taxes, the Parent will not get the Additional $500 Stimulus Check.       



  • The IRS will send the Payment to the Bank Account Information, that you have on File. 



  • If you did not indicate a Bank Account  nor used a Direct Deposit Method for your Tax Refunds, the IRS will mail the Check to the Address on File. 



  • In the Event, that you have moved from the Address on File, you need to File a Form 8822 with the IRS. This is a Change of Address Form to update your Address with the IRS.



  • The IRS will not withhold your Stimulus Check, if you are owing Taxes, the only clause is, if you are backed up on your Child Support Payment. You may have to call the Agency, in charge to make Payments and settlement, so that you are assured of getting your Full Stimulus Check Payment. 

  • The Earlier you file your Taxes, the Earlier you are assured of getting your Stimulus Check.      



        We are available to help you with all the Questions, that you may have , regarding the Stimulus Check as well as any other Question on the Stimulus Package. We are also available to assist you virtually. Call us on 202-422-4586 to set up an Appointment.
