Financing knowledge
SBA Disaster Loans
SBA disaster assistance is applied for directly through the SBA. It is different from lender-originated 7(a) or 504 financing and depends on the declared disaster and loan type.
Start with the official declaration
Check the SBA’s current declared disasters, eligible location and application deadlines. Physical damage assistance and economic injury assistance cover different needs. Amounts and permitted uses depend on the program.
Apply through the SBA
Use the official SBA disaster assistance website to find the appropriate application. A request on My Business Loans is not an SBA disaster application.
