Good News, PPP 2.0 is here! HVB is now accepting applications for the next round of PPP. Our team will be processing applications all weekend and will do our best to make the process easy and efficient for you. Unlike Round 1, the SBA will not be providing instant approvals. Once HVB submits your loan to the SBA, they have 2 business days to validate and decision. CRITICAL REMINDERS · At this time HVB is only accepting applications from existing customers and as capacity allows, new customers from the Greater Philadelphia Area ONLY. · Please be sure to submit your full legal business name, for returning customers this would be listed on your Round 1 PPP Note. (This will enable you to properly access your file with the SBA) · The SBA site requires a 2-letter state abbreviation in CAPS – PA, NJ, DE · DO NOT apply at multiple banks, this will trigger an alert in the SBA’s validation system and delay your loan processing. · Please be on the lookout for follow up emails regarding the processing of your loan from “Huntingdon Valley Bank PPP”. We have been informed that some customers are receiving these emails in their spam folder rather than their inbox. · Please note, if your Round 1 PPP Loan Forgiveness remains under SBA review, your PPP Round 2 application will remain in “Pending” until the SBA completes their review. The SBA has indicated that they will not approve the Second Draw PPP Loan and will not issue an SBA loan number until the First Draw PPP Loan review is complete but is working to resolve all reviews expeditiously. - PPP Round 2 - Q&A
For New Customers: · Have your original SBA note handy when you apply at HVB · The SBA Loan Number is 10 digits, be sure you enter all 10 · The Loan Amount and Current Outstanding Balance in our application should be the same amounts and need to match the note amount.

When is my PPP Loan Forgiveness Application due? The expiration date in the upper-right corner of the posted PPP loan forgiveness application forms is displayed for purposes of SBA’s compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, and reflects the temporary expiration date for approved use of the forms. This date will be extended, and when approved, the same forms with the new expiration date will be posted.
Prepare in Advance: • Read the instructions for whichever applicable SBA form pertains to your application (either the full SBA Form 3508 or 3508EZ). To determine which form is applicable, refer to the “Checklist for Using SBA Form 3508EZ” identified within the first page of Form 3508EZ instructions.
What to Expect: A recommended decision to the SBA will be processed within 60 days of receiving a complete application. The SBA will then complete a secondary review and final decision within 90 days of receiving our recommendation. Overall, it may take up to 150 days to receive a final decision regarding forgiveness. SBA will automatically reduce the requested forgiveness amount by the amount of any EIDL advance taken by the company.
