FEMA to mail postcards to Indiana storm relief applicants
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Federal Emergency Management Agency will soon be sending out postcards to those who applied for federal assistance for Indiana’s March 31 – April 1 storms.
The postcard will provide instructions on how to contact FEMA by calling their helpline at 800-621-3362. Those who receive these postcards are asked to call as soon as possible so the application process can continue.
Those who use relay services, like a video relay or captioned telephone service, are encouraged to give FEMA their phone number so FEMA can best contact you.
FEMA also asks that insurance documents showing what the settlements covered, what claims were denied, or if claims were delayed for more than 30 days, are sent forward so they may cover losses that aren’t already paid.
Insurance papers can be sent in the following ways.
- Calling the helpline at 800-621-3362
- Visit DisasterAssistance.gov
- Downloading the FEMA App on the Google Play or Apple Stores
