20	Loan Interaction	If you received an EIDL loan related to COVID-19 between January 31, 2020 and the date at which the PPP becomes available, you would be able to refinance the EIDL into the PPP for loan forgiveness purposes. However, you may not take out an EIDL and a PPP for the same purposes. Remaining portions of the EIDL, for purposes other than those laid out in loan forgiveness terms for a PPP loan, would remain a loan. If you took advantage of an emergency EIDL adance (grant) award of up to $10,000, that amount would be subtracted from the amount forgiven under PPP. A PPP loan must me used to refinance the full amount of an EIDL when the PPP borrower received funds from EIDL from January 31, 2020 through April 3, 2020; and the PPP borrower used the EIDL funds to pay payroll costs. The amount of the EIDL loan to be refinanced does not include the amount of any EIDL “advance” (also referred to as an EIDL “grant”) received by the PPP Borrower, because the EIDL advance does not need to be repaid.	If you get a disaster EIDL loan , and then use it to pay payroll, mortgage and utilities, only to come back in a month and apply for the PPP loan you can’t get forgiven for those costs you’ve already covered under an EIDL. An EIDL Loan may not be refinanced with a PPP loan when the PPP borrower received the EIDL before January 31, 2020 or after April 3, 2020. An EIDL Loan is not required to be refinanced with a PPP loan when the PPP borrower received funds from an EIDL loan from January 31, 2020 through April 3, 2020; and the PPP borrower used the EIDL for purposes other than payroll costs.	If you applied for the EIDL before 3-29-20, you will have to re-apply for the 10K. Appications after 3-29-30 include option to request 10K advance	Will be repaid in full or in part by proceeds from the EIDL loan		Borrower may separately apply for and take out a PPP loan, but debt relief will not apply to a PPP loan.

32	Documentation for Sole Proprietors, Independent Contractors, Self-Employed	Documentation demonstrating that was in business as of 02/15/2020 may include payroll processor records, payroll tax filings, or Form 1099-MISC, or income and expenses from a sole proprietorship. For borrowers that do not have any such documentation, the borrower must provide other supporting documentation to its lender, such as bank records, sufficient to demonstrate the qualifying payroll amount. Documentation options for payroll tax filings include the following: IRS Form 941 (quarterly wages); IRS Form 944 (calendar year wages); State income, payroll and unemployment insurance filings; QuickBooks; bank repository accounts; and/or internally generated profit and loss statements. However: Nonprofit organizations must include IRS Form 990; Sole proprietors must include IRS Form 1040 Schedule C; Any entity that filed IRS Form 1099-MISC must include this form; Seasonal employers must document the period beginning February 15, 2019 through June 30, 2019.
33	Strategic Considerations	If you have already laid off employees, you should be sure they will come back prior to accepting the full loan. In order to be fully forgiven, you must maintain full payroll. Employees may be collecting new unemployment benefits that provide an increase in pay.
34		While you cannot "double dip," (i.e. use the proceeds for the same expenditures), small businesses should consider applying for both the PPP and EIDL loans simultaneously. You can always decline the EIDL.
