Terms of Clearance: OMB has approved SBA’s information collection request (ICR), ”Application for Section 504 Loan” (3245-0071), for six months. This six month period will allow the use of the two collection instruments: 1)Form 1244 – Application for Section 504 Loan and Form 2450 - Eligibility Information Required for 504 Submission (Non PCLP), including modifications to 2450 due to the recent final rule, “504 and 7(a) Regulatory Enhancements,” (RIN 3245-AG04). During the six month approval SBA will review these two forms to consider ways to, among other things, possibly simplify, reduce duplicative request, clarify what is required for an application verses what is guidance for the lenders. The six month period should include the appropriate 60/30-day public comment process required by the Paperwork Reduction Act.
