We understand these are hard times for everyone weathering COVID-19, and that small businesses have unique challenges. A Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan through the SBA offers relief and an Eaton Community Bank Business Relationship Banker will walk you through the application process, as well as your forgiveness application.
PPP loans are designed to keep workers on the payroll, and are eligible for forgiveness if all employee retention criteria are met and funds are used on eligible expenses. Applications for new PPP funding must be submitted by May 31, 2021 or before funding is exhausted.
PPP applications (available below) must be submitted directly to your Business Relationship Banker through Eaton Community Bank's Secure Email Portal. For more information regarding loan forgiveness, visit our PPP Forgiveness page.
