The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) reopened the week of January 11 for new borrowers and certain existing PPP borrowers, according to the U.S. Small Business Association. This round of the PPP continues to prioritize millions of Americans employed by small businesses by authorizing up to $284 billion toward job retention and certain other expenses through March 31, 2021, and by allowing certain existing PPP borrowers to apply for a Second Draw PPP Loan, the SBA says.
