From today's update to the PPP Treasury FAQ document...

Question: The amount of forgiveness of a PPP loan depends on the borrower’s payroll costs over an eight-week period; when does that eight-week period begin?

Answer: The eight-week period begins on the date the lender makes the first disbursement of the PPP loan to the borrower. The lender must make the first disbursement of the loan no later than ten calendar days from the date of loan approval

Hopefully banks will be able to move faster than that, but SBA is giving them 10 days after approval to make the first disbursement.

10 days after approval I can live with. The problem is how long are the damned things going to take to process?

I think it depends more so on your bank. I submitted my PPP application and supporting docs to my banker on Friday afternoon for a 7 figure loan request. He notified me yesterday that he submitted our application and that it was approved by the SBA. The loan has not funded yet but based on what others have experienced, I am guessing I will see funding hit our account in 1 - 2 weeks. At this moment, it seems like the banks are taking longer to process the applications than the SBA because they are requiring the banks to certify that the loan amount is accurate and that the funds will be used for the proper purposes or they will lose their guarantee.

I hope it’s not the case but I wonder if priority is being given by banks to larger loans. Mine is 5 figures so I’m probably fricked.

Mine is as well and I was wondering the same earlier. The bigger the loan the more jobs saved at once is likely the philosophy. The smaller loans like ours will likely fill in the cracks as it progresses.
Which is frustrating as shite, if true.

Well the bank will making more fees on a larger loan than a smaller.

I suspect the banks simply trying to figure out how to get loan docs out and how to fund.

We have our SBA loan numbers on both our companies and have established checking accounts with the regional bank that did them for them to fund into.

I expect that funding to come this week.

If that bank fails to fund after getting the SBA guarantee I am going to be pissed.

I am a little bit worried that there will be banks somewhere that commit to more loans than they can fund and they will have to fund loans and then sell them before they fund others.

Well Fargo, the nation's largest business lender, did get permission to expand their balance sheet long enough to make the PPP loans to their customers but they must sell their excess over the punitive limit to the fed.

I know the bank I work with at a minimum said they will only process PPP applications only for active members of the bank as of 03/30/20. That is the only preferential treatment that I am aware of. The SBA is processing the applications in order. However, the order which your bank is processing your application likely varies from bank to bank. If I had to guess, I would imagine a lot of preferential treatment is being given to long standing customers and those with larger loans amounts.

I’d imagine banks are salivating over higher loan amounts considering they get 5% origination fee from the SBA. The smaller loans are going to be put to the side for the time being. Horrible

They get 5% on the smaller loans up to $350k. 3% between 350k and 2 million and 1% above 2 million.

PNC. I was solicited by a smaller lender and they indicated that another app can be put it in. If that’s true and they can streamline the process I might explore the option. PNC is so damned big that I fear I’ll be lost in the shuffle. Meanwhile we have mouths to feed.

I incorporated Jan 21 and have very little revenue. Is is even worth it to try and apply for loan?

I most definitely have lost revenue from Kung flu?

What month and year did your business incorporate? Is your business seasonal?

you will get something. We incorporated in September and I started paying myself in January.
For new companies, I've seen 2 forms from bank. First was an average of payroll from Jan 1st - March 31st, 2nd was Jan 1st- Feb 28th.
