Disaster Relief: Easier Access to Financial Aid for Victims.

New rules make it easier for individuals affected by major disasters to receive financial aid, even if they previously received other benefits. The act extends the period for claiming such aid and removes income thresholds, meaning more people will be eligible for support.
Key points
Extends the period for disaster victims to claim financial aid, starting from January 1, 2016.
Removes income limits for aid applicants, increasing the number of eligible individuals.
Facilitates access to relief funds, even if other benefits were previously received, preventing "duplication of benefits".
