ASA Supports Petition to Allow Tax Deductibility of PPP Loan Expenses

In a notice issued April 30, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service determined that expenses paid that result in forgiveness of a covered loan under the Paycheck Protection Program are not deductible under the federal tax code. Bipartisan legislation has been introduced in Congress that would overturn the IRS position, but it’s uncertain if or when Congress will act on it.

A petition to overrule the IRS position is circulating, which ASA members may wish to sign. ASA and other business groups are continuing their efforts to gain tax deductibility of PPP expenses though executive or legislative action.
