FEMA:
Residents can begin the application process by visiting FEMA’s web page at www.disasterassistance.gov, calling 800-621-FEMA (3362), or downloading the FEMA app. For additional information about FEMA’s disaster assistance resources and Individual Assistance program, visit www.disasterassistance.gov.
After applying for disaster assistance, FEMA may call to schedule an inspection of the damaged home or to obtain more information to process the application. These calls may come from unfamiliar area codes or phone numbers.
It is important to answer the call. A FEMA inspection may be required to determine whether a home is safe, sanitary, functional, and accessible. If an inspection cannot be scheduled, that may cause a delay in FEMA’s review of the application.
There is no charge for an inspection. The inspector will have a FEMA photo ID and the application number. FEMA representatives never ask for money.
If you receive a call from someone saying they are a FEMA representative, but you aren’t sure, call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362 to verify the caller’s identity.
In collaboration with FEMA and SBA, HCOHSEM has developed a Frequently Asked Questions video to assist residents with their respective recovery processes. For additional information about the FEMA application process, visit the Beryl Resources Recovery page at www.readyharris.org.
Damage & Clean up:
Additionally if you need assistance with damage clean up, you can call the CrisisCleanup hotline at 979-217-3791.
