What is considered a “household” for the purposes of this program?
A household includes all individuals living together in the same housing unit, whether related or not. This includes people living alone or unrelated individuals, such as partners or roomers, sharing a housing unit.

The applicant will be notified through a phone call or email when a check is ready to be picked up.

I received a notification and was not approved for ‘Ohana Memorial Support: COVID-19 Funeral Assistance. How do I appeal this decision?

Can a signed statement be submitted in place of a death certificate?

What is the turnaround time for an applicant to receive COVID-19 Funeral Assistance once all documents are submitted?
‘Ohana Memorial Support: COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Program eligibility determinations are generally made in fewer than 30 days from the time all required documentation is received and verified.

What can I do to avoid delays in processing my application?
You are encouraged to provide documentation verifying the death was attributed to COVID-19, along with proof of funeral expenses, proof of other funeral assistance received, and proof of residency as soon as possible. Once ‘Ohana Memorial Support: COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Program receives all your documentation, we will verify and validate it as part of the application review process.

I was responsible for funeral expenses for more than one person whose death was attributed to COVID-19. Can I apply for ‘Ohana Memorial Support: COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Program for more than one death? Is there a limit?
If you incurred COVID-19-related funeral expenses for more than one individual, you may receive at a maximum of $9,000 per deceased individual and a maximum of $35,500 per application.

Someone else helped me pay for funeral expenses. Can they apply for ‘Ohana Memorial Support: COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Program?
All funeral expenses for a deceased individual must be submitted in a single application.
