12 Apr Shuttered Venues Operators Grant Opening

The Shuttered Venues Operators Grant (SVOG) application portal opens April 8, 2021. The SBA updated its FAQs yesterday (look for the asterisk * to see which questions/answers have been modified or added.) Below are some key resources to prepare your SVOG application.

• SBA revised FAQs (Updated April 6, 2021)
• SBA’s Recorded SVOG Informational Webinar (March 31, 2021)
• SBA Local Assistance Offices

The exact time that the portal will open has not been announced yet. Please be sure to keep saving your work and copying answers into a WORD or email document, in case the new portal goes down temporarily. That way, you can just copy and paste your answers back in if the application was not saved.

If you have any further questions, please refer to our COVID-19 Resources page and come to my Zoom Office Hours at 11am EST on Friday to share your experience and learn from others.

Good luck.

Nina Ozlu Tunceli
Executive Director
