SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that as a result of
Public Law 106-50, the Veterans entrepreneurship and Small Business
Development Act of 1999, and the Military Reservist and Veteran Small
Business Reauthorization Act of 2008, this notice establishes the
application filing period for the Military Reservist Economic Injury
Disaster Loan Program (MREIDL).
Effective 10/01/2012, small businesses employing military
reservists may apply for economic injury disaster loans if those
employees are called up to active duty during a period of military
conflict or have received notice of an expected call-up, and those
employees are essential to the success of the small business daily
operations.
The purpose of the MREIDL program is to provide funds to an
eligible small business to meet its ordinary and necessary operating
expenses that it could have met, but is unable to meet, because an
essential employee was called-up or expects to be called-up to active
duty in his or her role as a military reservist. These loans are
intended only to provide the amount of working capital needed by a
small business to pay its necessary obligations as they mature until
operations return to normal after the essential employee is released
from active duty. For information/applications contact 1-800-659-2955
or visit www.sba.gov.
Applications for the Military Reservist Economic Injury Disaster
Loan Program may be filed at the above address.
The Interest Rate for eligible small businesses is 4.000.
The number assigned is 13332 0.
