On August 19, 2024, the CFPB issued the Filing instructions guide for small business lending data collected in 2025. The 2025 filing instructions guide is a set of resources to help covered institutions file small business lending data with the CFPB in 2026 covering the period from July 18, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

The filing instructions guide includes guidance on filing process, data points, data validation, as well as a summary of resources available from the CFPB to assist with small business lending rule-related inquiries. The 2025 FIG reflects the new compliance dates for filing and compliance.

The 2025 FIG can be found here.
