In order to get continuing FEMA rental assistance, evacuees must make an application for rental assistance, then obtain FEMA approval. For Katrina evacuees, there must then be a recertification every three (3) months. Forms are provided below for those evacuees to provide the information FEMA requests for recertification. Hundreds of thousands of evacuees have had their applications denied (see FEMA Denials), so this page also has appeal forms to help those whose applications were denied.
The materials on this page are designed by legal aid advocates to assist FEMA applicants to recertify or appeal a FEMA decision. FEMA provides an official basic recertification form, however FEMA often requests more information than is covered there. The following forms and advice include both official FEMA forms and unofficial forms and advice developed by lawyers assisting evacuees.
