Abstract: Application for benefits (ban) used to determine eligibility and credit worthiness of business owners/businesses who seek Federal assistance in a declared disaster. Respondents are disaster business owners seeking disaster assistance.

Emergency Justfication: This request is necessary so that SBA can have approval to roll-out the "Electronic Loan Application" (ELA) capability which was slated for May 31, 2008. The ELA will result in less data input errors, which will speed up the decision process for the disaster victim creating a shorter timeframe for obtaining needed funds.
