The U.S.

美國小型企業署（SBA）對其申請要求進行了重大更新，標誌著朝向更嚴謹、以證據為導向的流程轉變。

Small Business Administration (SBA) has implemented significant updates to its application requirements, marking a shift toward more rigorous, evidence-driven processes.

這些變動影響了兩個主要領域：8(a)企業發展計畫與SBA擔保貸款計畫。

Applicants must now provide objective, verifiable proof of discrimination, rather than relying solely on group affiliation.

雖然這增加了準備負擔，但現有參與者不受影響。

As of March 2026, businesses must be 100% owned by U.S. citizens or nationals, effectively excluding lawful permanent residents.

此外，新的承銷標準要求35萬美元以下的貸款需具備至少1.1:1的債務償還能力比率（DSCR），且貸款機構現在必須執行強化身份驗證。

Furthermore, new underwriting standards require a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) of 1.1:1 for loans under $350,000, and lenders must now perform enhanced identity verification.

這些調整需要仔細的策略規劃。

申請聯邦支持的企業應優先蒐集8(a)身分的證明文件，並檢視其所有權結構，以確保符合新的公民身分要求。

Businesses applying for federal support should prioritize gathering documented evidence for 8(a) status and reviewing their ownership structures to ensure compliance with the new citizenship requirements.

這些轉變反映了SBA透過細緻的個案分析，將資格標準化與驗證的目標。
