Insurance Settlement Documentation
If you received an initial denial from FEMA
because of insurance coverage, you may be
eligible for help after your claims have been
settled if you can demonstrate that your insurance
didn't cover essential needs.
Ask your insurance company for a settlement
letter that details exactly what is covered under
the claim. FEMA cannot duplicate insurance
payments but may be able to help where
homeowners and/or flood insurance did not.
You have up to 12 months from the date you
apply with FEMA to submit insurance settlement
records for review. If your settlement has been
delayed longer than 30 days from when you filed
your claim, you may write FEMA to explain the
reason for the delay. Any funds you get from
FEMA would then be considered an advance and
must be repaid when you get your settlement.
If you've received a letter saying you're
ineligible, additional documentation may be all
that is needed to change it. It's important to read
your letter carefully to understandpFEMA's
decision so you will know exactly what you need
to do.
Examples of documentation are proof of
residence, proof of ownership of the damaged
property, and proof that the damaged property
was your primary residence at the time of the
disaster.
You can submit missingg documentation to
FEMA online at www.disasterassistance.jZov or
by visiting a Disaster Recovery Center. A list of
DRCs is avai a e on the P EMA Apl) or by
