For those who lost a loved one to COVID-19, the federal government is now offering up to $9,000 for funeral expenses.
FEMA announced the program on Thursday, April 8, which is aimed at easing the burden caused by the pandemic.
“At FEMA, our mission is to help people before, during, and after disasters,” Acting FEMA Administrator Bob Fenton said in a statement. “The COVID-19 pandemic has caused immense grief for so many people. Although we cannot change what has happened, we affirm our commitment to help with funeral and burial expenses that many families did not anticipate.”
Families that lost more than one member to COVID-19 are encouraged to submit one application with all of the expenses the family spent on funerals.

Those that lost more than one family member can seek up to a maximum reimbursement of $35,500.
FEMA said it will provide the monies for any funeral expenses related to a COVID-19 death after January 20, 2020.
To be eligible for assistance, FEMA lists the following conditions:
The death must have occurred in the United States, including the U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia.
The death certificate must indicate the death was attributed to COVID-19.
The applicant must be a U.S. citizen, non-citizen national, or a qualified alien who incurred funeral expenses after January 20, 2020.
FEMA will begin accepting applications for the program on Monday, April 12.
Families will need official death certificates and documents related to expenses to apply for the funds, FEMA said.
They will also need documentation of monies already received.

Ah, now I understand why some were so upset that the death certificate did not state specifically Covid. It is my understanding the hospital whom issued Death certificate or MD can change same. Cuz way back at beginning of this plague, people were angry that it seemed covid was listed on all the death certificates cuz the hospital or facilities or insurance would collect more monies. Then esp in NY, numbers were messed up to keep King Cuomo to appear to be a Saint. So they stopped saying covid.
There is talk of those whom have received some sort of autoimmune disease, including the cognitive function problems and fatigue and shortness of breath, would be eligible for some form of disability. Still in talks.
Americans are travelling like nuts. A couple people allegedly developed covid after the vaccines. Just stay careful. Do your own research. Your governors and mayors are not your friends in this battle it does seem.
I see King Cuomo actually named his fancy dancy airplane the King. No, sir, the murderer of many in NY housing and nursing homes.
