DACA entrepreneurs have built successful Senior Care businesses across the United States. With valid Employment Authorization Documents and Social Security Numbers, they run operations, employ American workers, and pay taxes — yet face systematic exclusion from the capital markets that fund their competitors. Bankable exists to correct that.
What Senior Care Businesses Fund With Capital
- Caregiver staffing: Payroll capital for CNAs, HHAs, and companion caregivers
- Vehicles: Transportation for medical appointments and senior outings
- Training: CNA certification, home health aide training, and compliance training
- Technology: Care management software, scheduling, and electronic visit verification
- Franchise acquisition: Purchasing a home care franchise territory
- Working capital: Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement cycles (45–90 days)
The SBA Gap and the Bankable Solution
The SBA's March 2026 citizen-only rule eliminated the most affordable small business lending program for DACA owners. Bankable's revenue-based tranche funding fills this gap: no citizenship required, no green card needed, 48-hour decisions. Your senior care revenue is your qualification.
