Disaster Assistance
Here's what to do if you've experienced damage to your home. We've broken down the recovery process into three main steps so you can get started.
- File a claim with your insurance company. Make sure to report all your losses from the disaster.
- Contact our Loss Draft representatives at 1-855-447-7214. After filing the claim, your insurance company may issue a check - this is the Loss Draft Check. Once you receive this check, we will assist you with the rest.
- Register for assistance at disasterassistance.gov. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is the primary source for federal disaster assistance. If you're a homeowner, visit their website for helpful information, or read their document on how to get assistance after a disaster.

When registering for FEMA assistance, FEMA reminds disaster assistance survivors of the following:
- National Flood Insurance Policy (NFIP) claims are not subject to state laws.
- Registering with a community or faith-based group does not register them with FEMA.
- Both homeowners and renters may be eligible to register.
- Register even if you have insurance because not all damage may be insured.
- Register even if you only had minor damage.
- Register even if your home is still inaccessible.
- Register even if you think you'll be ineligible.
- Impacted customers can visit www.fema.gov/nfip to learn more about the National Flood Insurance Program and how to file their Flood Insurance claim.
- NFIP policyholders who have experienced flood damage should file their insurance claims as soon as possible to begin the recovery process.
- Do not fall prey to scams. Speak only to your agent, the NFIP, or our FRB Mortgage servicer agent about premium payments.
