two updates before year-end
the e-book is up-to-date as of august 6, 2020. but the paycheck protection program has continued to change as congress tweaks its legislation, and the treasury and small business administration update their guidance. (it changed two days ago, for example.)
accordingly, we will update the “maximizing ppp loan forgiveness” e-book at the end of summer and again before the end of the year for any changes and then provide you with email updates. note that we anticipate updating the e-book for the “continuing small business recovery and paycheck protection program act” and, in fact, have that revision nearly ready to publish. (expect that soon!) we will also need to update the e-book for any changes in the loan forgiveness application.
