Update from the SBA 504 Central Servicing Office
for Future Loan Payments

Effective April 14, 2023, the CSA will be updating both the File ID and Company ID associated with ACH transactions for 504 and FMLP loan payments per the chart below. The File ID and Company ID are 10-digit unique identifiers used to identify the entity who is collecting a payment via ACH.

ACH ID Changes:

Recommended Actions for Borrowers:
No changes will need to be made to the borrower's ACH account.

If the Borrower's financial institution has a fraud filter based on a Company ID or File ID in the ACH file, that filter should be updated to accept the new IDs referenced above and prevent the loan payment from being returned.

The CSA and SomerCor are unable to confirm which financial institutions utilize a fraud filter and could potentially be affected; thus, Borrowers should contact their financial institution with any concerns before the May 1, 2023 loan payment is debited from their financial institution's account.
