NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – FEMA is reminding people affected by recent wildfires and flooding of the next steps after filing for assistance.

The agency said home inspections may be necessary to make sure a home is safe and livable.
Inspectors will contact applicants to arrange a meet-up at homes.

FEMA said people should make sure to authorize another adult to act as an agent if people have evacuated and cannot return.

Applicants should tell inspectors about any disaster-related needs.

To “speed up” inspections, residents can: ensure their home/mailbox number is visible, keep their appointment with the inspector, and update FEMA on contact information. Inspectors will investigate if the house is sound, if utilities are working, and if the home is safe to enter or exit.

FEMA said a typical home inspection will take around 45 minutes, and recipients should allow up to 10 days for the inspection to be processed. If you have questions, you can call this hotline: 800-621-3362. Find more information by clicking here.
