How do Ethnicity Bias And Immigration Affect 8(a) Certification?
It can be
confusing for an applicant of 8(a) certification to understand the ethnicity bias
and immigration status. It is found that the applicant makes or submits
conclusory statements and do not provide the evidence in form of documents and
supporting statements to establish the eligibility on the ground.
This can be
a reason to get the application rejected or denied. The 8 A program is to
provide aid to small and disadvantaged firms who are not getting a fair chance
in the commercial market.
Sometimes,
poor English or broken accent is the reason cited by the applicants for the
disadvantaged status as they lack communication skills and so face biased treatment.
But, this is a costly mistake as this reason alone is not sufficient enough to
get the 8a status. Well, it can be reasonably well enough to support other
criteria related to ethnicity and immigration.
These reasons should be in detail and
must have narratives
The mere
mention of the reason is not enough. The applicant for 8a certification should
establish with documents and proof that
they actually are a victim of prejudice and biased treatment.
The benefits of the minority program
by SBA.
The SBA
certification provides the small company owners a chance to do trade in the
federal world. The federal has kept set-asides from its huge purchases and so
these sums up to a whopping amount for these companies who are not able to do
trade in the commercial market.
There are
other benefits as well, such as workshops, mentorship program s and so on.
