What are the latest requirements for SDVOSB certification through the SBA in late 2026?
My veteran-owned business is looking to get certified as an SDVOSB for federal contracts. We do court reporting and legal support services. I know the NDAA for Fiscal Year 2021 transferred VOSB and SDVOSB certification from the VA to the SBA, and that happened in 2023. I'm trying to figure out if there have been other changes since then. We are working on a sources sought notice for the VA, and they mentioned SBA certification is now required for an SDVOSB set-aside.
What are the current ownership and control rules for SBA SDVOSB certification? Are there any specific requirements for service-disabled veterans themselves that I need to know about?
