The Federal Emergency Management Agency is extending the application deadline for disaster relief in Minnesota.
Applications must now be turned into FEMA by October 27th.
The agency is offering monetary help to individuals and businesses in 21 counties, including Goodhue and Rice counties, affected by severe storms and flooding in June and July.
That includes reimbursement for expenses such as temporary housing, home repairs and other disaster-related costs.
FEMA assistance may include funds for temporary housing while you are unable to live in your home, such as rental assistance or reimbursement for hotel costs; funds to support the repair or replacement of your primary home, including privately-owned access routes, such as driveways, roads, or bridges; and funds for disaster-caused expenses and serious needs, such as repair or replacement of personal property and vehicles, funds for moving and storage, medical, dental, child care, funeral expenses, and other pre-approved miscellaneous items.
Disaster survivors who have not yet applied for FEMA assistance should apply online at DisasterAssistance.gov, use the FEMA App on your phone or call 800-621-3362.
