SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Small 

Business Investment Act authorizes 

SBA to guarantee a debenture issued by 

a Certified Development Company 

(CDC). The proceeds from each 

debenture are used to fund loans to 

eligible small business concerns (‘‘504 

loans’’). 15 U.S.C. 697(a). The Small 

Business Act and the Small Business 

Investment Act mandate that all 

guaranteed loans provided by the SBA 

to small business concerns (SBCs) must 

have a reasonable assurance of ability to 

repay. See 15 U.S.C. 636(a) (6) and 

687(f); see also 13 CFR 120.150. The 

information collections described 

below—SBA Form 1244 is part of the 

application process for a 504 loan. SBA 

issued Information Notice under control 

number 5000–20056 on September 

30,2020 for the retirement of Form 2450. 

Additionally, in accordance with the 

National Defense Authorization Act 

(NDAA)/Small Business Runway 

Extension Act (SBREA) for the 

anticipated Fiscal Year 2022 final rule, 

the SBA plans to use its administrative 

discretion to permit loan applicants to 

choose between 3 years and 5 years for 

receipts-based size standards, and from 

12 months to 24 months for employeebased size standards. (15 U.S.C. 

632(a)(2)) 

Solicitation of Public Comments 

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. 

Summary of Information Collection 

Title: Application for Section 504 

Loans. 

Form Number: SBA Form 1244. 

Description of Respondents: Small 

Business Concerns applying for a 

section 504 loan and Certified 

Development Companies. The information collected by this 

form is used to review the eligibility of 

the small business concern (SBC) for 

SBA financial assistance; the 

creditworthiness and repayment ability 

of the SBC; and the terms and 

conditions of the 504 loan for which the 

SBC is applying. SBA has established a streamlined 

loan application processing procedure 

known as the Abridged Submission 

Method (ASM). Under this process, the 

CDCs are required to collect and retain 

all exhibits to SBA Form 1244, but are 

only required to submit selective 

documents. CDCs using the non-ASM 

method are required to submit all 

documents and exhibits required for 

Form 1244. 

The burden estimates (based on the 

experience of the CDCs and SBA field 

offices) of the burden hours imposed by 

use of these forms, including exhibits, 

are as follows: 

There are 200 CDCs affected by the 

information collection. The total number of 

small business concerns that will annually 

respond to Form 1244 is approximately 7,119 

based on the average submission of 

applications submitted from CDCs over the 

past FY using both the ASM and non-ASM 

methods. This is a total of 7,119 respondents. 

Burden hours are 2.25 hours for PCLP Loan 

and ALP Express Loan, 2.5 hours for ASM, 

and 3.5 hours for non-ASM submissions. 

Submission through delegated 

authority: 15 × 2.25 = 34 burden hours. 

Submission through the ASM: 5,695 × 

2.5 = 14,238 burden hours. 

Submission through non-ASM 

(standard method): 1,409 × 3.5 = 4,932 

burden hours. 

Total burden hours: 19,204.
