When talking about different types of small business loans, a key program to understand is the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL), which has been crucial for many businesses and entrepreneurs during challenging times.
The EIDL loan is for any businesses located in an official disaster area or experiencing substantial economic injury. The SBA has introduced the EIDL Hardship Accommodation Plan, which helps those facing continued financial difficulties. In this blog post, we will explore what the plan entails and how it can benefit loan recipients seeking EIDL loan forgiveness.
Many EIDL loan recipients are eager to achieve loan forgiveness to alleviate their financial burdens. If you fall on continued hard times after receiving the EIDL, there is a plan forward. The process of EIDL loan forgiveness involves meeting certain criteria set by the SBA.
The EIDL Hardship Accommodation Plan is designed to offer relief to borrowers who are struggling to repay their EIDL loans due to unforeseen, short-term financial hardships. This plan allows borrowers to request accommodations such as loan term extensions, payment deferrals, and other options to help them manage their loan obligations more effectively.
To qualify for the EIDL Hardship Accommodation Plan, borrowers must demonstrate that they are facing financial difficulty that impacts their ability to repay their EIDL loan, such as being default on payments. Borrowers can submit a request for accommodation to the SBA, outlining their specific circumstances and providing any supporting documentation as needed. At Protect Law Group, we are committed to helping borrowers through this process.
By participating in the EIDL Hardship Accommodation Plan, borrowers can potentially avoid defaulting on their EIDL loans and preserve their credit ratings. The accommodations provided under this plan can help borrowers navigate challenging financial situations and work towards achieving EIDL loan forgiveness in the long run.
The EIDL Hardship Accommodation Plan serves as a valuable resource for recipients who are facing financial difficulties after receiving and seeking forgiveness. Protect Law Group can assist you in navigating this process from start to finish by outlining steps, negotiating on your behalf, and offering small business law expertise. By understanding the purpose of this plan, how to qualify for it, and the benefits it offers, borrowers can take proactive steps to manage their EIDL loans effectively and secure their financial stability.

Clients executed several trust deeds pledging seven (7) real estate properties and unconditional personal guarantees for an SBA 7(a) loan from the participating lender. The clients' small business failed and eventually defaulted on repayment of the loan exposing all collateral pledged by the clients. The SBA subsequently acquired the loan balance from the lender, including the right to liquidate and collect all pledged collateral pursuant to the trust deed instruments.
The Firm was hired to negotiate separate release of lien proposals for all 7 real estate properties. In preparation for the work assignment, the Firm Attorneys initiated discovery to secure records from the SBA and Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service. After reviewing the records and understanding the interplay between the lender and the SBA, the attorneys then prepared, submitted and negotiated the release of lien (ROL) for each of the 7 real estate properties for consideration.
After submitting the proposals, the assigned SBA Loan Specialists approved each ROL package - significantly reducing the total SBA debt claimed.
Our firm successfully facilitated the SBA settlement of a COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) f borrower received an SBA disaster loan of $150,000, but due to the severe economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the business was unable to recover.
Despite the borrower’s efforts to maintain operations, shutdowns and restrictions significantly reduced the customer base and revenue, making continued operations unsustainable. After a thorough business closure review, we negotiated with the SBA, securing a resolution where the borrower paid only $6,015 to release the collateral, with no further financial liability for the owner/officer.
This case demonstrates how businesses affected by the pandemic can navigate SBA loan settlements effectively. If your business is struggling with an SBA EIDL loan, we specialize in SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC) solutions to help close outstanding debts while minimizing financial burden.
