Privacy Act Statement ( 5 U.S.C. 552a)
Purpose for Collecting Information: SBA is collecting the information on this form, including your social
security number and other personal information to make a character and credit eligibility decision in
connection with you or your company’s application for a loan or other form of SBA assistance.
Submission of the requested information is voluntary; however, because the information is required in
order for SBA to have sufficient information to determine whether to provide you with the requested
assistance, if you do not provide the information, we would be unable to make a final decision on your
application.
Authorities: Under the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552a, failure to provide your social security number may
not affect any right, benefit or privilege to which you are entitled. However, disclosures of name and
other personal identifiers are required for a benefit, as SBA requires an individual seeking assistance
from the Agency to provide it with sufficient information to make a character determination. In
determining whether an individual is of good character, SBA considers the person's integrity, candor,
and disposition toward criminal actions. SBA is specifically authorized to verify your criminal history, or
lack thereof, pursuant to section 7(a)(1)(B) of the Small Business Act, (the SBAct), 15 USC § 636(a)(1)(B).
Additionally, in making loans pursuant to section 7(a)(6) the SBAct, 15 USC § 636 (a)(6), SBA is required
to have reasonable assurance that the loan is of sound value and will be repaid or that it is in the best
interest of the Government to grant the assistance requested. Further, for all forms of assistance, SBA is
authorized to make all investigations necessary to ensure that a person has not engaged in acts that
violate or will violate the SBAct or Small Business Investment Act,15 USC §§ 634(b)(11) and 687b(a). For
these purposes, you are asked to voluntarily provide your social security number to assist SBA when
making a character determination to distinguish you from other individuals with the same or similar
name, date of birth or other personal identifier. This request is permitted under EO 9397.
Routine Uses: The information collected may be checked against criminal history indices of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. When the information collected indicates a violation or potential violation of
law, whether civil, criminal, or administrative in nature, SBA may refer it to the appropriate agency,
whether Federal, State, local, or foreign, charged with responsibility for or otherwise involved in
investigation, prosecution, enforcement or prevention of such violations. See, SBA’s Privacy Act System
of Records, at 74 Fed. Reg. 14890 (2009), as amended for other published routine uses for the collected
information.
