PPP Loan Funds and EIDL Grant Amounts Refilled

by | Apr 27, 2020

April 27, 2020

This week Congress provided further relief for businesses and healthcare institutions through additional funding for the record stimulus deal in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES) provided for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans to qualified businesses with forgiveness components. Details on these portions can be found here and here.  The Senate passed Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act, H.R. 266 on April 21, 2020. It was later approved by the House on Thursday April 23, 2020, and ultimately signed by the President on Friday April 24, 2020.  Here’s a link to the full text of the Act.

The purpose of this Act was to refill the PPP and Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) and Emergency Grants that were initially authorized under the CARES Act. The nation, and lenders, saw a rush and within 13 days of the loan applications being made available, the initial funds were exhausted. A chart of where the first round of funds went is here.

Division A-Small Business Programs

  • Commitments for 7(a) or PPP Loans from the CARES Act was modified to replace $349 billion with $659 billion, an increase of $310 billion.
  • Direct appropriations within the CARES Act for the PPP was modified to replace $349 billion with $670 billion, an increase of $321 billion, the difference from above is presumably to cover the accrued interest that is also potentially forgivable and lender fees for loan origination.
  • The Act also set aside $30 billion of these refilled PPP funds for depository lenders and credit unions with between $10 billion and $50 billion in consolidated assets in an effort to provide access to those with middle market financial institution relationships.
  • An additional $30 billion of the refilled PPP funds was set aside for community financial institutions (defined in the Act), depository institutions, and credit unions with under $10 billion in consolidated assets in an effort to provide access to those with smaller financial institution relationships.
  • Appropriations of an additional $10 billion were added for EIDL grants doubling the total amount initially made available.

In short, if you missed out on round 1 of the PPP, now is the time to act. Hopefully you have all your documentation lined up and ready to go for the loan application. Additional resources including the loan application can be found here.

When “Creative” Tax Deductions Invite the IRS to Your Door

Jun 2, 2026

What do an arsonist’s fee, a family dog, and a backyard fallout shelter have in common? They’ve all been claimed as tax deductions — and they all earned the kind of IRS attention no taxpayer wants. While most people aren’t pushing the limits quite that far, the truth is that questionable deductions don’t have to be outrageous to trigger an audit.

What Business Owners Must Know About Net Operating Loss Rules in 2025 and Beyond

May 19, 2026

The pandemic-era flexibility is gone, and the One Big Beautiful Bill has locked in the TCJA’s NOL rules for the foreseeable future.

Texas Limited Partners Get Good News from the Fifth Circuit — But Don’t Skip the Planning

May 12, 2026

If you are a limited partner in a Texas-based business, a January 2026 federal court ruling just changed the rules in your favor — and the savings could be significant. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit rejected the IRS’s long-standing “passive investor” test and ruled that any partner in a limited partnership with genuine limited liability qualifies for the self-employment tax exemption under IRC Section 1402(a)(13) — even if you actively work in the business. With self-employment tax running as high as 15.3%, the financial impact of this ruling can be substantial. But the law is still unsettled outside Texas, and the details matter. Read on to find out what this means for your tax strategy and what steps you should be taking right now.

Building a Family Limited Partnership That Lasts: What High-Net-Worth Families and Business Owners Need to Know

Mar 17, 2026

Most business owners think about succession planning far too late. A Family Limited Partnership, when established early and managed with discipline, gives founders something rare: the ability to transfer economic value to the next generation gradually, deliberately, and on their own terms — without giving up operational control in the process. It is one of the most effective wealth transfer and succession planning tools available. It is also one of the most scrutinized by the IRS. Before you build one, make sure you understand what it takes to make it last.

Manufacturers: A New Tax Break Could Let You Write Off Your Entire Facility on Day One

Mar 3, 2026

Congress just handed manufacturers one of the most significant tax incentives in decades. Under the new One Big Beautiful Bill Act, qualifying businesses can now deduct 100% of the cost of a new production building in the very first year it is placed in service — instead of spreading that deduction over 39 years. For a business investing $5 million, $10 million, or more in a new or expanded facility, that difference could be transformational. But the rules are strict, the election is irrevocable, and the clock is already ticking. Read on to find out if your facility qualifies and what you need to do before you file.
