Rebuilding After Wildfires

As you rebuild, take steps now to reduce future damage from wildfires. You can have a hazard mitigation advisor answer your questions about rebuilding safer and stronger. Send an email to FEMA-R10-MIT@fema.dhs.gov.

We have teamed with Firewise Communities, the Federal Alliance for Safe Housing, and the Institute for Business and Home Safety to create this fact sheet to help you rebuild after a fire.

FEMA Speaks Your Language

Translated into 27 languages, the "Help After a Disaster" brochure is a tool that can be shared in your community to help people understand the types of FEMA Individual Assistance support that may be available in disaster recovery. We also have a playlist of videos in ASL about FEMA assistance on YouTube.

Passport Replacement Fees

The Department of State approved Governor’s Brown request to waive passport replacement fees. The passport application fee waiver for Oregon wildfire survivors is valid until September 14, 2023. The file search fee waiver is valid until March 14, 2022.

Along with other documents identified by the Department of State, an applicant will submit a DS-64 form as proof that the valid passport was lost in the disaster. The DS-64 form must have the following:

• The name or description of the disaster that caused your loss 
• The address of the residence where the loss occurred 
• The approximate date when the loss occurred
• Certification that replacement passport fees will not be reimbursed by other sources, such as a homeowner's insurance policy
