Justification

Privacy Act and Declaration of Eligibility Screen

Service Rep:
Please read the following statement to each Delta Call applicant, as they will not have heard it from the phone recorded message.

We are required to provide you with the following Privacy Act Statement.

The Privacy Act of 1974 protects your rights as to how FEMA uses and shares your information.

The Stafford Act and other authorities allow FEMA to collect this information to determine eligibility and administer financial assistance as a result of an Emergency or Presidentially declared disaster.

FEMA may share your information outside of FEMA with entities such as with States, tribes, local governments, voluntary organizations, and other organizations in accordance with published routine uses. FEMA shares this information to enable you to receive additional disaster assistance and as necessary to prevent a duplication of benefits and to prevent future disaster losses.

FEMA may record phone calls for internal quality assurance purposes. Furnishing your Social Security Number and other requested information is voluntary, however, failure to provide may delay or prevent you from receiving assistance.”

If you knowingly make false statements to obtain disaster aid, it is a violation of federal and State laws.

Service Rep:


In order to be eligible to receive FEMA Disaster Assistance, a member of the household must be a citizen, non-citizen national or qualified alien of the United States. Please feel free to consult with an attorney or other immigration expert if you have any questions. By agreeing to continue your registration, you hereby declare under penalty of perjury, that you are a citizen or non-citizen national of the United States, a qualified alien of the United States, or a parent or legal custodian of a child who is a minor, who resides with you and who is a citizen, naturalized citizen or qualified alien of the United States.

In addition, you certify the following:

  • Only one application has been submitted for your household.


  • All information you have provided regarding your application for FEMA disaster assistance is true and correct to the best of your knowledge.


  • You will return any disaster aid money you receive from FEMA or the State if you receive insurance or other money for the same loss, or if you do not use FEMA disaster aid money for the purpose for which it was intended.


You understand that, if you intentionally make false statements or conceal any information in an attempt to obtain disaster aid, it is a violation of federal and State laws, which carry severe criminal and civil penalties, including a fine up to $250,000, imprisonment, or both. FEMA may use external parties to verify the accuracy of representation made in the application process.

You understand that the information provided regarding your application for FEMA disaster assistance may be subject to sharing within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) including, but not limited to, the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

You authorize FEMA to verify all information given by you about your property/place of residence, income, employment and dependents in order to determine your eligibility for disaster assistance; and

You authorize all custodians of records of your insurance, employer, any public or private entity, bank financial or credit data service to release information to FEMA and/or the State upon request.

Do you understand and agree to these statements?

Service Rep:
Please read the following statement to each Delta Call applicant, as they will not have heard it from the phone recorded message.

FEMA is required to provide you with the following statement:

The Stafford Act, Privacy Act and other laws allow FEMA to collect information to determine eligibility and provide assistance as a result of a Presidentially declared disaster.

FEMA may record phone calls for internal quality assurance purposes. Providing your Social Security Number and other requested information is voluntary, however, refusing to provide this information may delay or prevent you from receiving assistance.

You must understand that if you received FEMA Assistance and have insurance that covers the same loss or receive other assistance for the same loss, you may be required to return some or all of the FEMA Assistance provided to you.


You must authorize FEMA to verify all information given by you about your primary residence, income, identity, and dependents in order to determine your eligibility for disaster assistance.

You must authorize FEMA and/or the State to request your personal information from entities such as your insurance company, or financial institution.

Removing “at the time of the disaster” due to conflicting guidance within section. Pre-disaster income is what should be captured.
