Requesting a FEMA Waiver: Q&A for Jen

[jdavis]

Since I have never sent in a waiver, I was wondering if anyone had an answer for me.
When you email a request for a waiver (fema-disaster area) do they email you an answer, or just send it in the mail, I think that it just said when I hit submit that I would get an answer in the MAIL? Just wondering, slacking, I should have sent it in before now, but I was hoping to get an answer real soon, and not have to wait on snail-mail. TIA-Jen

TY - just one more service we graciously provide here.

We? What do you mean we, you got a mouse in your pocket?







By the way when I was in highschool, one of the teachers said that to a classmate and she was baffled, lol, was nothing we didn't expect from her though, lmao.

KG's using the royal we. He can because he's a royal pain in the ... you know.If you haven't heard about the waiver, give HO a call. It may have gotten lost in the post-conference shuffle.

Hi Jennifer!

I have helped Consultants submit waivers for personal reasons, but never for FEMA-Disaster areas. Therefore, I do not have an answer for you. Definitely worth a call to Home Office.

Sorry I could not be of more help.

Be sure when you submit the waiver, you let them know how many months you want it for. I had a consultant submit one last week since she moved and they only granted her a one-month waiver. She has to submit $200 before the end of July. She thought she would have 3 months to get back on her feet. I called and they told me they will only grant 1 month unless it is specified in the e-mail how long you want. Now she has to resubmit the waiver and hope for a second approval. UGH!

 

[jdavis]

Well when I submitted it I didn't specify how long, just stated that I was in a fema disaster area and wouldn't be able to submit anything in the near future or something like that. I am barely keeping myself active right now, since I have been too busy with the kids and other jobs to get anything done, I just don't want to lose what I have worked for until I do have time to really kick this thing in gear.

You should get a confirmation e-mail from HO regarding your waiver and it will tell you the month that you need to submit sales again. If it's only for a month, you can request 2 more. Good luck!
