Important SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) Information
On March 19, 2020, all counties in Pennsylvania were issued the disaster declaration that makes businesses in PA eligible to apply for SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) loans. Impacted businesses should apply as soon as they are able.
- Small businesses and private non-profits are able to apply for an SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) online at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela.
- Businesses should be prepared with the documentation needed to apply. For example, they will be asked for federal business and personal tax returns, and historical and projected revenue. All businesses are able to review the SBA Disaster Business Loan Application paper forms and requirements at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela/Information/PaperForms. A complete and thorough application will be eligible for funding (an incomplete application will delay the process.)
