Oregon Residents: Still Time to Apply for FEMA Disaster Assistance
SALEM, Ore.–Oregon residents affected by wildfires and straight-line winds in Clackamas, Douglas, Jackson, Klamath, Lane, Lincoln, Linn, and Marion counties still have time to apply with FEMA for individual disaster assistance. The deadline to apply is Nov. 16, 2020.
Homeowners and renters are encouraged to contact their insurance company and file a claim for the disaster-caused damage. However, survivors do not need to wait for their insurance settlement to apply.
Disaster assistance through FEMA may help eligible survivors with financial assistance that include rent, home repair, home replacement and other disaster-related needs such as childcare, medical and dental expenses.
Those who have uninsured or underinsured losses can apply with FEMA in one of three ways: online at disasterassistance.gov, via the FEMA app, or call 800-621-3362 (TTY: 800-462-7585).
