Individual and Family Grants for Disaster Victims

Program Description
The Individual and Family Grant Program (IFG) provides money for the necessary expenses of disaster victims, which cannot be met through other forms of disaster assistance, including insurance.

Eligibility for this program is determined after the Small Business Administration (SBA) has denied you a disaster loan (either by an income test or loan application). If you are denied an SBA loan, referral to IFG is automatic. Other eligibility considerations include: the affected home must be your primary residence, the home must be located in the disaster-declared area, and you (or an adult household member) must be a United States citizen, a non-citizen national or a qualified alien.

General Program Requirements
In order to qualify for this benefit program, you must be a US national, citizen or dual citizen who has necessary disaster-related expenses (property loss, medical, funeral, transportation) for which you have received no insurance or government compensation and who has been denied a loan by the Small Business Administration.
