SBA Disaster Loans for New Hampshire Severe Storm and Flooding, DR-4947
Possibly. FEMA major disaster declaration DR-4947 (Severe Storm and Flooding), declared October 7, 2026, currently lists FEMA Public Assistance but not Individual Assistance, so SBA disaster loans for New Hampshire businesses depend on whether FEMA adds Individual Assistance or the SBA issues its own declaration. Without one, SBA disaster loans under a Public Assistance-only declaration are generally limited to eligible private nonprofit organizations.

How SBA disaster loans work in declared areas
The U.S. Small Business Administration can make low-interest disaster loans in areas covered by a disaster declaration. Depending on the declaration, these can include physical damage loans to repair or replace property, and Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) that help cover operating expenses while a business recovers.
The SBA publishes which counties qualify and the deadline to apply for each disaster. Always check sba.gov/disaster and disasterloanassistance.sba.gov for the official declaration and dates. You can apply directly with the SBA at no cost.

We prepare compliant, submission-ready SBA disaster loan packages: the eligibility analysis, underwriting and documents the SBA asks for. You submit your own application with a complete file.
