FEMA remains in Arkansas to help survivors and communities recover from the March 31 severe storms and tornadoes. What we do and how we do it is driven by integrity, compassion, fairness and respect. We are here now and will remain in Arkansas until our job is complete.
FEMA and the Arkansas Division of Emergency Management caution disaster survivors to be aware of post-disaster fraud and scams. Attempts to scam residents can be made over the phone, by mail or email, through the internet or in person. It is important to remain alert, as scammers are creative and resourceful. If an offer sounds too good to be true, it should be questioned.
If you received a letter from FEMA saying that the information you provided is incomplete, or that you are ineligible for disaster assistance, you have the right to appeal the decision within 60 days of the date on the letter. An appeal is a written request to review your file again and consider any additional information you’ve provided that may affect the decision. In the event it takes longer than sixty days, please include why your appeal is late.
