Disaster Financial Assistance (DFA) is a program administered by the Provincial Emergency Program. It provides limited financial assistance for qualifying homeowners, residential tenants, farmers, small businesses and charitable organizations for uninsurable damage and losses. It is not an insurance policy and damages that are insurable are not eligible for DFA. Check with your insurance agent or an insurance broker for information about private insurance.For more information visit the PEP website at www.pep.gov.bc.ca/dfa_claims/ PrivateSectorGuidelines.pdf 4. Question: Where to go for information on home insurance – more specific to those impacted Answer: Check with your insurance agent or an insurance broker.
