A couple of weeks ago I heard you say that bonuses could be included in payroll qualified for PPP forgiveness. I have been told by several people that it cannot-could you answer that again please?
Do health care costs that qualify for forgiveness include pre-tax amounts paid by the employer?
I have a client in North Dakota that has 3 employees working at their plant in Saskatchewan. Do the wages for these employees count towards forgiveness?
I signed a new lease back in January that went into effect in April at a higher rate. Which amount due I use as rent-the $8,500 per month before April 1, or the $10,000 a month I started paying April 1?
Can I include my company’s truck payment interest if I got the loan last year?
I prepaid all my 2020 utility bills last year and am not paying anything now, it is just eating into my credit balance. Does this qualify for forgiveness?
My restaurant has had its revenues drop by 90% and I had to use my PPP loan money just to pay the mortgage payment so I would have something to come back to. I had to give away the inventory or it would spoil back when they closed it, and what little money is left I need to use just to buy enough inventory to re-open the doors. Am I in trouble?
Even if I qualify for forgiveness of the entire PPP loan will I still have to pay interest?
If I waited to pay my employees their March payroll until I got the loan proceeds on April 6th, and then paid them, will that qualify for forgiveness?
Where do I get the forgiveness form and where do I send it?
I own my own S corporation and did not pay myself much of a salary in 2019 and took the rest as a distribution to save taxes. Can I make it a payroll this year to qualify for reimbursement or does it matter?
If I have some unpaid bills for rent and utilities can I still qualify for reimbursement on them?
I am all over the pace here on employees. First, we closed our restaurant, then we went back to take out and delivery but those required a lot of part time help for a few hours each day at lunch and dinner. How the heck do I figure full and part time?
Bob-this is personal but are you going to charge your clients to complete this form, and if so, how much?
Has your thinking about when to draw Social Security changed now that it is going bankrupt?
I am drawing something called a spousal benefit of $940 monthly on my husband, having never worked outside the home. He was drawing $2,200 monthly. My friends are telling me I should be getting more. He died 2 weeks ago-what will happen to me Mr. Jennings-I don’t have anything or know where to turn?
