First, you should immediately apply for an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (https://www.sba.gov/page/disaster-loan-applications#section-header-0). This loan offers a forgivable advance of up to $10,000. Funds will be made available within three days and the loan advance will not have to be repaid. Even if you already applied for this loan, you need to apply again under the new streamlined application below if you want to be eligible for the advance.
