Virginia — particularly Northern Virginia — has the largest concentration of Salvadoran TPS entrepreneurs outside of California. The DC metro area's construction, landscaping, restaurant, and cleaning industries are deeply shaped by Salvadoran TPS holders who have been building businesses since 2001. Arlington's Clarendon and Columbia Pike corridors are centers of TPS business activity.
The SBA's 2026 citizenship requirement has created an urgent funding gap for TPS entrepreneurs across Virginia. These are not new businesses — many have been operating for 10-20 years, employing US workers, paying state and local taxes, and reinvesting in their communities. Bankable provides an alternative to SBA financing that is based entirely on your business revenue, not your immigration status.

The March 2026 SBA Rule and Virginia TPS Entrepreneurs
The SBA's updated 2026 eligibility rules require 100% US citizen or national ownership for all SBA 7(a) and 504 loan programs. Every TPS holder in Virginia — regardless of how long they have lived here, how many employees they have, or how strong their credit — is now ineligible for SBA loans. See our guide to SBA alternatives for TPS holders.
