The U.S. Small Business Administration announced an amendment to the Presidential declaration of a major disaster in South Carolina, which was initially made because of Hurricane Helene. This amendment extends the deadline for filing applications for physical damage loans to January 28, 2025. The disaster declaration originally set out by FEMA-4829-DR remains the same otherwise. Those affected can apply for assistance through the MySBA Loan Portal.
Simple Explanation
The government said that people in South Carolina who had their homes damaged by a big storm named Hurricane Helene have more time to ask for help fixing things. They now have until January 28, 2025, to ask for this help.
