Rich, Management Analyst, 202–205–7030, curtis.rich@ sba.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Section 1102 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, Public Law 116–136, authorized SBA to guarantee loans made by banks or other financial institutions under a temporary program titled the ‘‘Paycheck Protection Program’’ (PPP). These loans were available to eligible small businesses, certain non-profit organizations, veterans’ organizations, Tribal business concerns, independent contractors, and self-employed individuals adversely affected by the COVID–19 Emergency. SBA’s authority to guarantee PPP loans expired on August 8, 2020. On December 27, 2020, SBA received reauthorization under the Economic Aid Act, Public Law 116–260, to resume guaranteeing PPP loans through March 31, 2021. The Economic Aid Act also allowed certain eligible borrowers that previously received a PPP loan to receive a Second Draw PPP loan and amended certain other PPP statutory provisions. On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act, Public Law 117–2, was enacted, amending various PPP statutory provisions. On March 30, 2021, the PPP Extension Act of 2021 was enacted, extending the SBA’s PPP program authority through June 30, 2021. Since the initial approval of this information collection, the information collection has been revised to meet the ever-evolving needs of the PPP program, as necessitated by statutory program amendments, public feedback, or other factors. The information collection is currently approved under the emergency procedures authorized by 5 U.S.C. 3507(j) and 5 CFR 1320.13; this approval is set to expire on January 31, 2022. Although SBA’s PPP program authority has expired, this information collection is still needed for the following reasons: (1) PPP borrowers may apply for forgiveness of their loans up to the date of loan maturity, which may be as late as 2026; (2) SBA may review a PPP loan at any time; and (3) pending litigation may require the collection of information. Therefore, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act, SBA is publishing this notice as a prerequisite to seeking OMB’s approval to use this information collection beyond January 31, 2022. There are no proposed changes to any of the PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 68525 information to be submitted by lenders or borrowers. Summary of Information Collection Title: Paycheck Protection Loan Program Borrower Information Form and Lender’s Application for Loan Guaranty. OMB Control Number: 3245–0407. (i) SBA Form 2483, Paycheck Protection Program Borrower Application Form, collects information from applicants concerning the ownership of the business and from the applicant’s owners of 20% or more, the loan purpose, any applicable history of prior defaulted government debt (except student loan debt), and any applicable criminal history. Estimated Number of Respondents: 9,279,434. Estimated Annual Responses: 9,279,434. Estimated Annual Hour Burden: 1,237,258. (ii) SBA Form 2483–C, Paycheck Protection Program Borrower Application Form for Schedule C Filers Using Gross Income, collects information from applicants concerning the ownership of the business, the applicant’s gross income, the loan purpose, any applicable history of prior defaulted government debt (except student loan debt), and any applicable criminal history. This form is used by Schedule C filers using gross income to calculate their loan amount instead of SBA Form 2483. Estimated Number of Respondents: 239,160. Estimated Annual Responses: 239,160. Estimated Annual Hour Burden: 31,888. (iii) SBA Form 2484, Lender’s Application—Paycheck Protection Program Loan Guaranty, collects information from lenders concerning the eligibility of the applicant, the applicant’s gross income (if applicable), and the loan terms and conditions. Estimated Number of Respondents: 5,467. Estimated Annual Responses: 9,218,594. Estimated Annual Hour Burden: 3,841,081. (iv) SBA Form 3506, CARES Act Section 1102 Lender Agreement, collects information from federally insured depository institutions, federally insured credit unions, and Farm Credit System regulated agricultural lenders (other than the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation) that do not already participate in the 7(a) loan program, to evaluate their eligibility to participate in the PPP.
