October 1, 1986, Portland Observer, Page 7 SBA and IRS Cooperate on Loan Collections SBA is participating in a pilot program with The Internal Revenue Service to collect selected severly delinquent loans by offsetting tax refunds This is part of the increased emphasis on collection of government loans as out lined in the Debt Collection Act of 1982 and the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 Although the initial program will include only Disaster Home Loans, it is expected to be expanded to other SBA programs in the near future Under the plan, SBA will notify borrowers of its proposed action and allow sufficient time for the borrower to correct delinquency or negotiate an acceptable repayment plan. If the borrower fails to cooperate, the account will be referred to the IRS and any tax refunds due will be offset and the funds applied to the loan. The Agency may also consider other actions, such as referral of the case to a private collection agency or reporting the delinquency to credit bureaus Other agencies are also participating to collect Guaranteed Student Loans and Veteran Administration Loans The initial 60 days of this program resulted in $1,600,000 repayments nationally with substantial additional collections expected Purchase of SBA's Guaranty If a borrower is 60 days or more delinquent in making payments on an SBA guaranteed loan, the lender can request SBA to honor its guaranty. This is commonly referred to as a "buy back" request Upon receipt of a buy back request, the SBA will provide the lender with written confir­ mation and instructions. Upon receipt and verification of the necessary documentation, the amount of the principal and interest guaranteed by SBA will be sent to the lender by wire transfer The following items often cause problems in computing the amount of the buy back: All payments made by the borrower must first be applied to accrued interest, with the balance applied to the principal Generally accumulated interest in excess of 180 days will not be paid by SBA If the loan carries a variable rate of interest, it will be converted to a fixed rate loan effective on the date the loan went into default even if loan servicing is retained by the lender It is important that SBA be advised of the date the loan went into default and the rate of interest in effect on that date. These items often prevent SBA from making timely approval and transfer of buy back funds Inadequate documentation for title and lien position in real estate collateral to insure compliance with the SBA Loan Authorization A Color Pictures For Your Garden A six week, Tuesday evening class designed for gardeners who want to create year round color compositions in their garden land scapes is being offered by the World Forestry Center, Tuesdays, October 7 through November 11, 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Join professional garden designer Barbara Ashmun, as she shows how to combine trees, shrubs, per ennials, bulbs, ground covers and annuals to create beautiful color displays.

If, however, the applicant does not meet the bank’s credit standards due to an unsatisfactory profit history, unsup ported protections, or because of other significant adverse factors, it will not meet SBA s quality lending criteria either Enclosed is my check M O For $22 88 as full payment Please pill me with first issue I have 30 days to pay (check one) TNV News Syndicate P O Box 644 Adelphi Station Brooklyn.
