Paycheck Protection Program (PPP)

We are now accepting PPP Loan Applications from current business clients.
To begin the application process, please click on the appropriate link below. Please be sure to review the eligibility requirements and have all necessary information and supporting documents available.

PPP Application Deadline

The deadline to apply has been extended to May 31, 2021, or until PPP funds run out. Applications received by the SBA from Mechanics Bank by May 31, 2021 will continue to be processed until June 30, 2021 (unless program funds have run out). Applications may experience a longer processing time because of additional reviews the SBA is performing on each application. We cannot guarantee that your application will be processed and approved by the SBA before funds are exhausted, or before the June 30, 2021 funding deadline. Please click on the appropriate PPP Loan link below for more information and to begin an application.

Communicating with your Loan Processor

Once you have started your loan application, please remember that you can email directly with your PPP Loan Processor by responding to any email from PPPLoans@mechanicsbank.com that includes your unique PPP User ID (the series of letters and numbers separated by a hyphen in the subject line of the email). In order for your email to be received by your loan processor, you must ensure that you do not alter this unique PPP User ID in the Subject Line of the email message you send. Altered PPP User IDs in the subject line of emails may not get to your loan processor.

Loan Forgiveness Update

Forgiveness for Loans Made in 2020: Email invitations to begin the Loan Forgiveness Application process have been sent to all borrowers who received a PPP loan with us in 2020. Emails were sent to the email associated with your PPP loan record (please check your spam or junk folders for messages from PPPforgiveness@mechanicsbank.com). If you did not receive an email to begin the Loan Forgiveness Application process, or if you believe the email we have on record is not accurate, or is no longer in service, please email us at  CaresAct@mechanicsbank.com with your contact name, business name, address and phone number and we will reach out to update our records.

Even if you have not applied for Loan Forgiveness yet, your loan payments are deferred until 10 months after the end of your applicable Covered Period. Please see our  Loan Forgiveness page for more information and a timeline example.

Forgiveness for Loans Made in 2021: You will be eligible to apply for Loan Forgiveness once your Covered Period is complete. Loan proceeds must be spent during the 8- to 24-week “Covered Period” immediately following disbursement of the loan. We will send you an email invitation to begin the Loan Forgiveness process when the time is appropriate.

Please see our Loan Forgiveness Page for more information on the Loan Forgiveness process and how to prepare.
