Loan Eligibility
Am I eligible to APPLY for a small business loan?
CEDF serves all of CT’s 169 towns and employs the governing state statutes and Federal regulations in determining a borrower’s potential eligibility.
We will evaluate your inquiry based on criteria that may include one or more of the following:
--Whether your household income falls below the current Federally-designated threshold for the state or the community where you live.
--Whether your existing business is in a state-designated Connecticut town.
--Whether you reside in a qualified census tract based on Federal designations of underserved neighborhoods.
These criteria change periodically and are best evaluated for accuracy by our staff. Please submit a loan inquiry to allow us to identify the relevant standards and determine which financing programs you might be eligible to apply for.
