SBA OIG Report Highlights Missed Collection Opportunities on Delinquent COVID 19 EIDLs
OIG’s August 2025 audit reveals SBA failed to use key tools in collecting $47B in delinquent COVID‑19 EIDLs. Learn what it means for borrowers now.
On this day, September 11, 2013, as another anniversary year goes by from that fateful day that changed the lives of so many, 9/11/01, let us remember those who died from the attacks and honor the courageous, strong and brave individuals who did what they could to help those survive and live another day.
On this day, we re-post this video in honor of Welles Crowther, the Red Bandanna hero from Boston College, who saved at least 12 of his other fellow human beings during the attacks on the World Trade Center towers but sacrificed his own life in doing so.
Watch, listen and never forget . . .
Millions of Dollars in SBA Debts Resolved via Offer in Compromise and Negotiated Repayment Agreements without our Clients filing for Bankruptcy or Facing Home Foreclosure
Millions of Dollars in Treasury Debts Defended Against via AWG Hearings, Treasury Offset Program Resolution, Cross-servicing Disputes, Private Collection Agency Representation, Compromise Offers and Negotiated Repayment Agreements

The client personally guaranteed an SBA 504 loan balance of $375,000. Debt had been cross-referred to the 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 personally guaranteed SBA 504 loan balance of $750,000. Clients also pledged the business’s equipment/inventory and their home as additional collateral. Clients had agreed to a voluntary sale of their home to pay down the balance. We intervened and rejected the proposed home sale. Instead, we negotiated an acceptable term repayment agreement and release of lien on the home.
Our firm successfully resolved an SBA 7(a) loan default in the amount of $212,000 on behalf of an individual guarantor. The borrower’s business experienced a significant downturn in revenue and was unable to sustain operations, ultimately leading to closure and a remaining personal guaranty obligation.
After conducting a thorough financial review and preparing a comprehensive SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC) submission, we negotiated directly with the SBA and lender to achieve a settlement of $50,000—approximately 24% of the outstanding balance. This favorable resolution released the guarantor from further personal liability and provided the opportunity to move forward free from the burden of enforced collection.
