U.S. Seeks to Collect on Up to $20 Billion in Delinquent Covid Loans


U.S. Seeks to Collect on Up to $20 Billion in Delinquent Covid Loans

The Wall Street Journal is reporting in an article dated March 7, 2024 that the U.S. is seeking to collect $20 Billion in  delinquent SBA EIDL Covid loans from small businesses and not for profit entities. The article can be found at https://www.wsj.com/business/u-s-seeks-to-collect-on-up-to-20-billion-in-delinquent-covid-loans-96dd36c6?mod=business_lead_story

The SBA announced that  delinquent Covid EIDL loans with balances of $100,000 or less will be sent to the Treasury Department for collection.

The referral is sent to Treasury Direct, which can seize government benefits such as portions of Social Security payments and tax refunds.

Additionally, in our experience Treasury Direct can and will assess a 30% penalty on the unpaid balance of defaulted SBA EIDL loans (a point not covered in the article).

Moreover, borrowers who default may have to recognize Cancellation of Debt income, which is ordinary income under section 108 of the Internal Revenue Code (another point not covered in the article).

Many small businesses never intended to repay the loans, hoping they would be forgiven like PPP loans; however, this is not the case.

Borrowers with questions about defaulted SBA EIDL loans should contact Jim Shenwick, Esq. Jim has an LLM in Taxation from NYU law school and he is familiar with the Cancellation of Debt tax issues.
