News and Media: Disaster 4697

If you’ve applied for FEMA assistance to help cover the cost of repairing your storm-damaged home or replace personal property, FEMA will ask you to prove you owned or rented your home at the time of the March 24-25 tornadoes. FEMA recently expanded the list of accepted documents to make it easier for survivors.

Renters in Carroll, Humphreys, Monroe, Montgomery, Panola and Sharkey counties whose homes and property were damaged by the March 24-25 storms can apply for FEMA disaster assistance.

FEMA-contracted home inspectors are working in Carroll, Humphreys, Monroe, Montgomery, Panola and Sharkey counties as part of the disaster assistance process for the March storms.

At a Disaster Recovery Center (DRC), you can speak with specialists from FEMA, the state of Mississippi and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) to get help with your recovery.

The state of Mississippi and FEMA have opened four Disaster Recovery Centers to help survivors of the March storms and tornadoes with their recovery.
