Important Hurricane Michael Update: FEMA Assistance Application Deadline
The deadline to apply for Public Assistance from FEMA has been extended to December 17 in the designated counties (4399-FL). You must follow specific steps on the public assistance website (www.FloridaPA.org) to be eligible to receive FEMA funds. Access a presentation designed to assist you in making that application. You can reasonably expect that the public assistance request process will last at least 6 months (and likely longer) and that any grant monies will not be received for 18 (at a minimum) to 36 months. This estimate is based upon FEMA’s current funding pace with past events, such as Matthew and Irma.
If you encounter difficulties submitting a request for PA, email RPA.help@em.myflorida.com for assistance.
