Great, But How Can I Get an SBA Loan for My Business?

Although it's called an SBA loan, you apply for an SBA loan with a local or national bank, not with the SBA. The bank processes the loan and gives you the money, and the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan.

If you need emergency money for small businesses, the SBA has special programs for you. We've put a spotlight on this loan from Happy State Bank so you can get a feel for how SBA loans work. Applying for an SBA loan starts with a visit to a banker that works with the SBA.
