To satisfy SBA requirements, you’ll need to upload a bank statement from your business account. The statement must show that your business was in operation and that—if it applies to your business—you had employees on Feb 15, 2020.
Depending on when your business was in operation, use the following to determine which statement to upload:
- If your business was in operation for all of Feb 2020, upload your Feb 2020 bank statement
—or— - If your business was not in operation for all of Feb 2020, upload a statement that shows transactions dated Feb 15, 2020
We strongly recommend providing a statement downloaded from your bank's client portal instead of a scanned paper statement, as the bank statement should be a clear, legible, and non-editable PDF file.
If we cannot verify that you were in operation on Feb 15, 2020, you won’t qualify for a PPP loan.
