Is Your EIDL
Forgivable?
One of the loan programs specifically aimed at small
business owners is EIDL.
However, there are various
misconceptions about EIDL.
One of the frequently asked questions is whether EIDL is
forgivable.
A business could avail the loan to
cover 6 months of working capital
funds or $150,000 whichever was
lower.
With new enhancements to the EIDL in March 2021, an
enterprise can get loans to a maximum of $500,000.
If the 24-month working capital
requirement is less than
$500,000, then only the actual
working capital amount will be
approved as a loan.
EIDL is a non-forgivable loan provided by SBA to small business
owners who have to repay it after a deferment period.
SBA has stated that the loan
payments will become due after
March 31, 2022.
Just like a regular loan, businesses have to repay the
principal along with the interest.
Another interesting factor is
that interest on the loan
accrues in the deferment
period also.
Conclusion: Though EIDL is not a forgivable loan, businesses can
still benefit from it due to the long repayment period and low interest
rate.
A full understanding of what it
means for your business and the
burden of a loan should be
analyzed.
