FEMA announced Saturday that the documentation drop-off center in Gladwin will now remain open until Friday, Sept. 18.

This is where survivors of the May flooding and storms can submit supporting documents for their disaster assistance application.

The center is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and located at 401 S. State Street in Gladwin. It will be closed Sunday, Sept. 6 and Monday, Sept. 7.

After Labor Day, the hours and days will be ​9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday and closed Sundays. It will close permanently at 6 p.m., Friday, Sept. 18.

All documentation drop-off centers in Michigan will be closed on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 7. The documentation drop-off center in Midland will then close permanently at 6 p.m., Tuesday Sept. 8. The center in Saginaw will close permanently at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 8.

Survivors who have been asked by FEMA to provide additional documentation should read their FEMA letter carefully and make sure they have everything they need when they arrive at the drop-off center. Applicants do not have to visit a center to submit documents to FEMA—they can mail, fax or submit them online as well. Information on these options can be found in their FEMA letter.

If you don’t understand the letter you received from FEMA, call 800-621-3362 (TTY: 800-462-7585) between 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. and ask for assistance.

The drop-off center is staffed with FEMA personnel who can scan documents and quickly answer questions about disaster assistance programs.

All applicants and FEMA personnel will follow currently effective state and local requirements for COVID-19 safety measures. Applicants must wear face masks and will remain in their cars as they hand their documents to FEMA personnel, who will be wearing face masks (or other appropriate face covering) and protective equipment as well. FEMA staff will take the documents, scan them and return them to the applicants. Note: The drop-off centers do not offer COVID-19 testing.

Applicants may register in the following ways:

Call 800-621-3362 (TTY: 800-462-7585) between 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week. Multilingual operators are available.
