Update: As of July 11, the SBA is no longer providing Advances due to lack of government funds, but continues to accept applications and approve EIDL loans to qualified applicants. So, you absolutely still have an opportunity to receive government assistance.
The EIDL program has two parts, an Emergency Advance and a totally optional loan. If you follow the rules as outlined by the Government, the Advance will be fully forgiven (you won’t have to pay it back). Click here for the most up to date information from the SBA. Just so it’s clear, Buckle is doing this for free as a service for our drivers. We believe in doing whatever we can for our drivers, so this made sense for us.
If you’re a rideshare or delivery driver whose income was negatively affected by COVID-19, you are eligible to apply and may be approved for an EIDL Loan.

Disaster Loan Assistance
Federal Disaster Loans for Businesses, Private Non-profits, Homeowners and Renters
In response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, small business owners and non-profit organizations in all U.S. states, Washington D.C., and territories are able to apply for an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL). EIDL is designed to provide economic relief to businesses that are currently experiencing a temporary loss of revenue. EIDL proceeds can be used to cover a wide array of working capital and normal operating expenses, such as continuation to health care benefits, rent, utilities, and fixed debt payments.
