To qualify for the EZ application, the borrower must meet one of the following conditions:
1) The borrower is a self-employed individual, independent contractor, or sole proprietor who had no employees at the time of the PPP loan application.
2) A) The borrower did not reduce annual salary or hourly wages of any employee by more than 25% during the covered or alternate covered period.
AND
B) The borrower did not reduce the number of employees or the average paid hours of employees between January 1, 2020 and the end of the covered period.
3) A) The borrower did not reduce annual salary or hourly wages of any employee by more than 25% during the covered or alternate covered period.
AND
