SBA Loan Programs
The U.S. Small Business Administration has authorized fee relief to help support veterans and eligible members of the military community establish or expand a business.
The SBA has eliminated the upfront SBA guaranty fee on SBA Express Loans to veterans and those who qualify as a veteran* in the military community. For all SBA Express loans to qualified veteran-owned businesses, the upfront guaranty fee will be 0% up to the maximum loan amount of $500,000.
