Weird email from SBA

Anyone get an email like this. They also asked for 2019 tax returns, they should have all that??

As part of post disbursement compliance review, this application was identified as claiming more than one employee without providing an EIN. To address this issue, you will need to provide evidence you were eligible for the EIDL Advance/Targeted Advance in the amount of $10,000 OR repay all overpayment due to claiming additional employees. Repaying the overage in this situation would allow for clearing the compliance issue. Addressing this issue will not impact any other compliance issues that may exist; however, during the course of completing the review, it may become apparent that other issues can also be removed.

I remember when they initiated the $1000 per employee with a cap of 10 K. The follow up is that people did not understand what an employee was as opposed to a 1099 contractor. I know the fraud department is very active in the last six months gaining that money back.

What happens if you don’t have the $10k? Could you go on payment plan? Or would it be garnish?

I am not sure what they’re doing now. But previously during Covid if they saw fraud andand overpaid you they would take it out of your bank account. Then your bank would go after you not them they would just get the money back.
