SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As authorized by the Coronavirus
Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2020, the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), the
Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act, and the
new Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues
Act, the Small Business Administration (SBA) has been providing COVID-
19
[[Page 35560]]
Economic Injury Disaster Loans to provide working capital for small
businesses, private nonprofits, and small agricultural enterprises who
suffered substantial economic injury as a result of the Coronavirus
pandemic and Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans to help small
businesses retain their employees during the economic downturn caused
by the pandemic as well as to help businesses cover a portion of their
standard operating expenses during the pandemic. SBA has received more
than 18 million loan applications and more than 10 million PPP loan
applications, and a small percentage of those applications may be a
result of identity theft. In an effort to ensure SBA is taking the
appropriate action for individuals who have indicated they have been
the victim of identity theft, the individual will need to provide an
affidavit to SBA indicating no involvement in the filing of the loan
application, and that they did not receive or have knowledge of who
received the loan funds. The information will be collected from those
individuals (or their representative) who, without their knowledge or
authorization, had an application submitted to SBA utilizing their
personal information. SBA will review the information contained in the
affidavit to determine whether there was identity theft involved, and
if so, SBA will take the necessary steps to stop all billing
statements, release any UCC Security filings, and to ensure that loan
information will not be publicly reported in the name of the identity
theft victim. In addition, this affidavit will be provided to the
Office of Inspector General and other enforcement agencies in any legal
action going forward. The SBA requested and received emergency approval
under 5 CFR 1320.13 for this information collection.

information is necessary for the agency to properly perform its

whether there are ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
