📌 Full SBA EIDL Grant FAQ Document

What's In the Targeted EIDL Grant FAQ?

Here's the quick summary with the most important highlights:

  • The SBA will reach out to you starting today, February 1st, 2021 and they'll be emailing over the "next several weeks"
  • The SBA is unsure if they will expand the funding after the first two eligible groups, this depends on funding availability
  • The first two eligible groups are: 1) People who received less than $10K last time and are in a low-income community and; 2) People who applied last year but didn't receive anything due to lack of funding and are in a low-income community
  • The SBA will require revenue reduction documentation directly from you
  • You can prepare by ensuring your 2019 federal taxes are filed and you have revenue statements from both 2019 and 2020.
