Illegal immigrants impacted by Hurricane Matthew can qualify for extra federal funding if they have children who are U.S. citizens, according to authorities.
“All individuals, regardless of citizenship status, that have been impacted by a Hurricane are eligible for short-term, non-cash, in-kind emergency disaster relief programs,” a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) spokesperson told ThinkProgress.
“U.S. citizens; non-citizen nationals; and qualified aliens impacted are eligible to receive individual and household assistance,” the spokesperson said, adding those with U.S. citizen children could get more help, including “funds to help with the repair or replacement of a home, clothing, and other essential needs.”
