At Coastline we understand that protecting your business and protecting your employees is a difficult task lately. Fortunately our government has passed new legislation for payroll relief funds to help during these unprecedented times. Follow the links below to learn more and apply for funding.

Earlier today, the federal government issued guidance and a sample application for the Payroll Protection Program established under the CARES Act. The Small Business Administration will administer the program through its preferred lenders, banks and credit unions across the country.

The Payroll Protection Program, which according to the administration, is expected to be up and running on April 3, would provide cash-flow assistance through 100 percent federally guaranteed loans to employers with 500 or less employees who maintain their payroll during this emergency. If the employer maintains its payroll, then the portion of the loan used for covered payroll costs, interest on mortgage obligations, rent, and utilities would be forgiven, which would help workers to remain employed and affected small businesses and our economy to recover quickly from the COVID-19 crisis.
