Katrina Survivors,
Here is an update of resources with funds that may be available to you.
The IRS is issuing refund checks to Katrina survivors. If you paid taxes
in 2004, and you are a Katrina survivor you may be eligible to receive
"all" of your taxes paid for that year. If you have internet access you
can go online to: www.irs.gov <http://www.irs.gov/> and download the
forms you need (IRS publication 2194). You can also call IRS, and have
the Katrina disaster kit sent to your present location. The number is:
