# §123.102. What circumstances would justify my relocating?


SBA may approve a loan if you intend to relocate outside the business area in which the disaster has occurred if your relocation is caused by such special or unusual circumstances as:

- (a) Demonstrable risk that the business area will suffer future disasters;
- (b) A change in employment status (such as loss of job, transfer, lack of adequate job opportunities within the business area or scheduled retirement within 18 months after the disaster occurs);
- (c) Medical reasons; or
- (d) **Special family considerations which necessitate a move outside of the business area.**
