The U.S. Small Business Administration has issued an amendment to the Presidential declaration of a disaster in West Virginia due to severe storms, winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides that started on February 15, 2025, and are ongoing. This amendment includes Logan and Wayne counties as areas eligible for physical damage and economic injury loans, with neighboring counties in Kentucky and Ohio eligible for economic injury loans only. The physical loan application deadline is April 28, 2025, and the economic injury loan application deadline is November 26, 2025. People can apply for these loans through the MySBA Loan Portal.
Simple Explanation
In West Virginia, there was bad weather with storms and mudslides, so the government is offering loans to help people fix damage. People can ask for these loans online until April 28, 2025, for repairs or until November 26, 2025, for business help, but it's not clear how fast they can get the money.
