The form asked for the amount OWED. Look at the instructions above the section to be filled out.

Look at the timeline. July. That was right when Cruz had defeated Dewhurst (so this isn't the form to the FEC). When did Cruz get the loan, how much of it, and does that mean he had already paid it back so that he only owed between 100 to 200 thousand on it?

This document appears to, indeed, just be a financial disclosure form he probably had to fill out after beating Dewhurst. It isn't a disclosure that he received a massive loan to pay for his campaign. It's just listing his personal liabilities.

You are misleading what this was:

CNN's Dana Bash asked Cruz to explain his "very large loan" from Goldman Sachs following a campaign event in South Carolina.

"The premise of your question is not right," Cruz responded. "Heidi and I when we ran for Senate, we made decision to put our liquid net worth into the campaign. And so we did so through a combination of savings - liquidating our savings accounts - through a combination of selling assets, and then we had a brokerage account that has a standard margin loan that any brokerage account has, and we borrowed against the stocks and assets that we had under ordinary terms."
