Businesses and homeowners harmed by superstorm Sandy and looking to secure newly-reopened federal disaster loans now have seven locations in New Jersey to get help.

President Barack Obama signed the Superstorm Sandy Relief and Disaster Loan Program Improvement Act last month, authorizing the U.S. Small Business Adminstration to extend the deadline for one year for Sandy victims to apply for disaster loans. The new deadline is Dec. 1, 2016.

Homeowners can receive loans of up to $200,000 to repair or rebuild their homes, and as much as $40,000 more to replace damaged or lost items. Nonprofit organizations and business owners can get up to $2 million to repair or replace assets, according to the SBA.
