Can My Business Submit an Offer in Compromise for a Covid EIDL Loan?
Book a Consultation CallIf you obtained a Covid EIDL loan and your business is struggling financially, you may be able to compromise the debt for less than what is owed on behalf of your business. Traditionally, the SBA’s policy has been “compromise negotiations with an Obligor on a Disaster Business Loan should not be initiated until after the business is closed.”
However, in response to the huge volume of Covid EIDL loans, the SBA has issued a new offer in compromise (OIC) form that suggests the SBA may be entertaining OICs for a business that is still active. The form identifies the necessary documentation that a business should submit for the OIC.
It is unknown at this time what the SBA will do with such OIC submissions as they have not made any statements or issued any guidance as to OICs on Covid EIDL loans submitted on behalf of a business.

Client personally guaranteed SBA 504 loan balance of $375,000. Debt had been cross-referred to Treasury at the time we got involved with the case. We successfully had debt recalled to the SBA where we then presented an SBA OIC that was accepted for $58,000.
Clients borrowed and personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan. Clients defaulted on the SBA loan and were sued in federal district court for breach of contract. The SBA lender demanded the Client pledge several personal real estate properties as collateral to reinstate and secure the defaulted SBA loan. We were subsequently hired to intervene and aggressively defend the lawsuit. After several months of litigation, our attorneys negotiated a reinstatement of the SBA loan and a structured workout that did not involve any liens against the Client's personal real estate holdings.
