The clock is ticking … don’t miss SBA’s deadlines!


Do you have a list of all the SBA deadlines for your Standard 7a and Small SBA 7a loans?


They’re essential to protect the guaranty, enhance your reputation as a competent SBA Lender, and for getting things done in a prudent and timely manner.


Here’s a handy list you can use to update your SBA lending processes and procedures.

  • Submission of the application to SBA through ETran for GP loans.

  • Lender approval for PLP loans.

  • Servicing

    • Within 15 days of an adverse event (such as death of owner, business closure).

    • Within 60 days of uncured payment default.

TIP: Must be in a written report and maintained in the loan file. If you have pictures to include, that’s a plus.

  • Liquidation

    • Less than 120 days, and no more than a year

Seasoned Loan
