How Does the CARES Act Apply to You?
On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) into law to provide relief to those impacted by the coronavirus and the economic downturn.

It includes direct cash payments to individuals, loans to small businesses, extended unemployment benefits and help for distressed industries. The bill will have a significant impact on every aspect of the U.S. economy.
