People affected by the July storms and floods in St. Louis, St. Louis County and St. Charles County have just one day left to apply for FEMA assistance before the November 7 deadline.
FEMA and the Missouri State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) remind homeowners and renters who suffered damage as a result of the July 25-28 severe storms and flooding in Missouri, that there are several ways to apply for assistance before tomorrow’s deadline:
- Apply online at DisasterAssistance.gov
- Download and use the FEMA mobile app to apply
- Call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362 to apply
- If you use a relay service, such as video relay (VRS), captioned telephone or other service, give FEMA the number for that service. The Helpline is open seven days a week. Press 2 for Spanish or 3 for an interpreter who speaks your language.

If you have homeowners, renters, or flood insurance, you should file an insurance claim as soon as possible. FEMA cannot duplicate benefits for losses covered by insurance. If your policy does not cover all your damage expenses, you may be eligible for federal assistance.
If you have been asked to complete a disaster loan application from the U.S. Small Business Administration, or SBA, please complete it as soon as possible. If the SBA does not offer you a low interest loan, you may be eligible for additional FEMA grant assistance.
FEMA grants do not have to be repaid. FEMA assistance is non-taxable and will not affect eligibility for Social Security, Medicaid, or other federal benefits.
