SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
For SBA financial assistance programs, SBA Form 413 Personal Financial Statement (PFS) collects information regarding the assets and liabilities of certain owners, officers and guarantors of the small business applicant benefiting from such assistance and is used when analyzing the applicant's repayment abilities or creditworthiness. SBA's Surety Bond Guaranty Program uses the Form 413 PFS information during the claim recovery process. The information is also collected from applicants and participants in SBA's 8(a) Business Development (BD) and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Program certification process to determine whether they meet the economic disadvantage requirements of the program.
All program offices use the same Form 413. SBA plans to revise the authorization language for Form 413 to provide consent for SBA to obtain information from the Social Security Administration (SSA) confirming name, social security number, and date of birth. SBA will also update the certification to state that information provided in the Disaster loan application is accurate to the best of their knowledge.

SBA is requesting comments on (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the agency to properly perform its functions; (b) whether the burden estimates are accurate; (c) whether there are ways to minimize the burden, including through the use of automated techniques or other forms of information technology; and (d) whether there are ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information.
