On June 15, 2020 the U.S. Small Business Administration reopened the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) and EIDL Advance program portal to all eligible applicants experiencing economic impacts due to COVID-19 today. The EIDL program offers U.S. qualified small businesses, such as Domino's franchisees, long-term, low interest assistance of up to $150,000 and/or and EIDL Advance of up to $10,000 of emergency economic relief that does not have to be repaid.
