FEMA Extends Deadline for Tropical Storm Arthur Aid | Baton Rouge News

Louisiana residents affected by Tropical Storm Arthur now have until October 1, 2026, to apply for federal disaster aid—up from the original August 31 deadline. The extension, requested by the state, gives folks more time to file claims for repairs or losses caused between June 17–24 last year. Apply online at DisasterAssistance.gov, via the FEMA app, or visit one of two open Disaster Recovery Centers: Pointe Coupee Parish Library in Innis or Terrebonne Parish Main Library in Houma. Call the FEMA Helpline anytime 6 AM–1 AM CT for multilingual support, or use a separate number for accommodations like sign language interpreters.
