How to Recall Defaulted SBA Loan from Treasury Offset Program TOP

How to Recall Defaulted SBA Loan from Treasury Offset Program TOP Many clients who have defaulted on an outstanding SBA EIDL loan have contacted us regarding how to “Recall” their loan from the U.S. Treasury Department Treasury Offset Program (“TOP”) back to the Small Business Administration (SBA) to avoid the 30% TOP penalty and to void setoff of Government payments to defaulted borrowers.First, we note that recall is  difficult to do!Advice and/or  steps on how to recall a defaulted SBA loan or what to do if a defaulted SBA loan cannot be recalled are provided below. 1. Improper Transfer.  If you did not receive the Official 60-Day Notice from the SBA, that your SBA loan was in default and  would be transferred to TOP for offset, use this error as a reason for recall and contact both TOP and SBA and argue that the loan was transferred to TOP in  error and without proper procedure. 2. Hardship Grounds. Documenting a hardship making it impossible for further payment of the SBA EIDL loan such as disability, a disaster or the closing or bankruptcy of a business if Government payments are offset (not paid) to the SBA loan borrower. 3. Intent to Cure Default.  If the borrower pays off delinquent amounts and late fees and intends to stay current on future payments, SBA may be willing to call the loan back to give another chance.4. Loan Payoff. Payoff the amount of the outstanding SBA loan balance to stop the offset. 5. Loan Compromise/Offer in Compromise. Contact the SBA or TOP and request a compromise involving negotiating a lump sum reduced payment or a reduced payment over a short period of time (Installment Payment)  for less than the full amount owed. The reduced amount to be paid  is based on “facts & circumstances” of the case, will require many forms to be completed and submitted to TOP and SBA, will require negotiations with Government officials and is at the discretion of the Government. 
For those readers wishing more information on offer in compromise please seeEIDL loans and bankruptcy, which can be found at http://shenwick.blogspot.com/2022/07/eidl-loan-workouts-and-bankruptcy.html and  a post on defaulted EIDL loans and the SBA Offer in Compromise program.  That post can be found at http://shenwick.blogspot.com/2022/07/eidl-loans-and-sba-offer-in-compromise.html
6. File for Bankruptcy. When the borrower files for bankruptcy, section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code provides for an automatic stay, which stops the Offset and the business depending on the Bankruptcy filed can attempt to reorganize or liquidate.
