Labeling Documentation

Applicants should provide specific, descriptive language when labeling documentation in Grants Portal rather than just a simple categorization of the document file.

  • For example, if the Applicant uploads information about their insurance policy to Grants Portal, they should qualify it by labeling it by type. The information should be labeled "Property and Casualty Insurance" or "National Flood Insurance Policy" instead of just "insurance policy"
  • Another example is that an Applicant should label their document "FIRMette," rather than "Map"

If the Applicant encounters any issues with regard to labeling their documents, they may contact their FEMA Program Delivery Manager for assistance.
