EIDL application process
By Robert B. Holston Jr
April 20, 2021
Tuesday PM
We depend 100% on large cruise ship travel bringing customers to Ketchikan. The SBA has a biased & discriminatory application process presently for EIDL “ Economic Injury Disaster Loan” grants. The threshold of loss is 30% or greater but you must be located in a "low-income community", as defined by section 45D of the IRS Code.
We suffer a nearly 100% loss for two years running and don't qualify because we live in Ketchikan instead of Saxman! Having discriminatory federal mandates to qualify for COVID relief funds is a heavy impact on dozens of businesses like mine.
