Prior to Small Business Administration
(SBA) approval of subsequent loan disbursement, disaster loan
borrowers are required to submit information to demonstrate that
they used loan proceeds for authorized purposes only and to make
certain certification regarding current financial condition and
previously reported compensation paid in connection with the
loan.
The annual hour burden slightly
increased as a result of an increase in loan approvals (increase in
the number of uses of the form) over the last 3 FYs as compared to
previous 3 FYs. There are no program changes.
