Benefit from the Coronavirus Bailout
Friday, April 17, 2020With a massive area of the United States shut down due to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic, many businesses are making tough decisions in order to stay afloat. Though, due to the recent passing of a $2 trillion stimulus bill in the U.S. Senate, businesses and homeowners alike will hopefully experience a surge in the economy suffering from the pandemic.
The bill itself has six segments:
1. For Americans making less than $99,000 (or married couples making less than $198,000), individuals get up to $1,200 and married couples to get up to $2,400, plus an additional $500 for each child. Stimulus checks will begin to decrease in allowance if an individual makes $75,000 and above.
2. $500 billion for industries affected dramatically (including $50 billion for airlines)
3. $250 billion for unemployment insurance
4. $150 billion for state and local governments
5. $130 billion for direct aid to hospitals
6. And $350 billion for small businesses, just like Total Asphalt Paving, Inc.
The bill provides federally guaranteed loans available at community banks to small businesses that pledge not to lay off their workers. The loans would be available through June 30. Additionally, senators have included a “payroll tax holiday” for small businesses in the plan. Checks will be determined considering an individual or household’s 2018 tax return. Though, if you have filed your 2019 return, then the check will consider returns from 2019.
