Hmmm, my last post seems to have disappeared.

Sigh.  I'm not typing all of that again.

 

EDIT:  Oh, I found a way to retrieve it:

To re-state the question, once the amount of the loan is established (1/12 of something x 2.5), how much is eligible for forgiveness?  The SBA says 1/52 of annual compensation x 8 weeks. 

That does not compute to the amount loaned.

That is about 75% or so of the first calculation.

Which amount can be expected to be forgiven?


First, sorry about our tangent conversation.  You did great for your first question.

8 weeks of average income can be forgiven, PLUS rent, mortgage interest, utilities and debt interest during that period.

So you can get a loan for 10-ish weeks for pay, but only 8 weeks of pay can be forgiven.  The other 2-ish weeks is for the qualifying rent, mortgage interest, utilities and debt interest.

What kind of documentation would be required to show that the loan proceeds was spent on "owner compensation replacement? A canceled check marked "withdrawal"?


Susan posted the BRAND-NEW guidance for that above (I'll add the link below).  At my first reading, just showing your 2019 Schedule C works.
