Over the last couple of months, we’ve been discussing the CARES Act and the Paycheck Protection Program in great detail. Today, we have another update related to the PPP.  On June 05, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act (PPP Flexibility Act). This act brings substantial changes to the parameters surrounding forgiveness and amortization periods. Grant is here today to review the provisions of the new law and how you can take advantage of it.
