Union bank paycheck protection program application

We are now accepting SBA Paycheck Protection Program loan forgiveness requests from existing USB customers who have already received a PPP loan from us. This page may be updated with more information about the Forgiveness process should the SBA issue additional guidance.

USB RESPONSE TO SBA ANNOUNCEMENT – “SBA to Accept Direct Forgiveness Applications from PPP”. USB has a full team and is able to provide you with expert assistance and guidance, as well as process all PPP loan forgiveness applications, so we will not be accepting applications through the SBA portal. Please continue to submit your PPP Loan Forgiveness Application and all requested financial documents to us via our Secure Document Upload Area. This page details everything you need to do to request PPP Loan Forgiveness.

You can help us process your application quickly by providing both a completed application (including all required initials and signatures) AND the necessary supporting documents at the same time.

Once you submit your PPP loan forgiveness application, it will be reviewed for completeness. We will let you know if more information is required.

Once the Bank determines your application is complete, we will have up to 60 days to make a decision regarding your request for forgiveness and make a recommendation to the SBA. Please be aware, the SBA will have an additional 90 days after we make our recommendation to make a final decision on loan forgiveness. You can expect to receive ongoing communication from us throughout this part of the process, indicating the status of your application. Once the SBA informs us of their decision, you will be notified of the amount that is being forgiven, any outstanding balance that has not been forgiven and a due date for your first payment, if applicable.

As a reminder, forgiveness applications will be accepted from existing USB customers who have already received a PPP loan from the Bank. If you have not received a PPP loan from us, we advise you to contact your current financial institution for assistance.

Borrowers who have questions concerning eligible and ineligible expenses should consult their accountant or visit SBA.gov for more information on loan forgiveness.

The information below may change as a result of future legislative actions but here is some general information related to PPP forgiveness:

• Loan forgiveness is not automatic, you must request it through Union Savings Bank
• There is plenty of time to apply for forgiveness – you may do so at any time up until the maturity date of your loan. However, if you submit the loan forgiveness application within 10 months of the covered period of 24 weeks – known as the Deferral Period – you will not have to make any principal or interest payments on the loan
  • The Deferral Period ends on the earlier of (1) the date the SBA remits any forgiveness amounts to the Bank or determines the loan may not be eligible for forgiveness or (2) 10 months after the date the covered period expires

  The above information is provided for convenience. Please consult with your accountant or visit SBA.gov for more information on loan forgiveness.

  It is your obligation, as the borrower, to understand the SBA’s rules.

  To apply for forgiveness, please follow these steps:

  To request PPP loan forgiveness, you’ll need to provide and verify specific supporting documentation to Union Savings Bank.

  Steps

  Review the three SBA PPP Loan Forgiveness Application types for specific details and choose the loan forgiveness application that is right for you. Once you determine which application best fits your situation, using the instructions specific to that application, complete the form and gather the required documents that you will need to submit with your application.

  3508S form: This is a streamlined application for loans of $150,000 or less

  3508EZ form: This application requires less documentation and fewer calculations than form 3508. You can use this form if your loan is greater than $150,000 and you meet one of the two criteria listed below:

  • Did not reduce salary or wages for any employee by more than 25% during the covered period compared to the most recent full quarter before the covered period AND did not reduce the number of employees or the average paid hours of employees between January 1, 2020, and the end of the covered period
  • Did not reduce annual salary or hourly wages of any employee by more than 25 percent during the covered period compared to the most recent full quarter before the covered period AND was unable to operate during the covered period at the same level of business activity as before February 15, 2020, due to compliance with requirements established or guidance issued between March 1, 2020 and the end of the covered period, by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, related to the maintenance and standard of sanitation, social distancing, or any other work or customer safety requirement related to COVID-19
