If someone one you love passed away because of COVID-19, you may be eligible for monetary help. FEMA is now presenting economic reimbursements of up to $9,000 per person to cover funeral expenses for families who have lost a loved one due to COVID-19. Assistance may be available for costs incurred after January 20, 2020 for funeral services, burial, and cremation.
FEMA will start taking applications in early April 2021 via telephone.
