`As the United States surpasses 1 million deaths from COVID-19, the Federal Emergency Management Agency is urging those who lost loved ones to the coronavirus to use its COVID-19 Funeral Assistance fund. The fund is a federal program that offers up to $9,000 to cover the cost of a funeral for someone who died of COVID-19. The program, which has no end date, covers deaths attributed to the coronavirus as far back as January 2020. To apply for funeral assistance, applicants must call (844) 684-6333, where FEMA representatives will take their call. The application must be completed over the phone and the process takes about 20 minutes. Learn how you can receive this assistance by clicking the link below. |
