Denial Avoidance

The Pre-Decision Process (PDP) and the Pre-Determination Findings process (PDF) were designed to reduce denials by allowing firms to address and correct issues without receiving a denial determination.

Pre-Decision Process (PDP) – Allows Veteran Business owners to withdraw an application to fix any issues and immediately reapply for verification.

Pre-Determination Findings (PDF) – Inform Veteran Business Owners of easily correctable issues within their application. Owners have 48 hours to respond with their intent to correct and 5 days resubmit.

Note: Participation in either PDP or PDF do not guarantee verification.
