📢 National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Extended to September 30, 2026
Last night, the President signed a bill to extend federal government funding to September 30, 2026, which includes extension of NFIP authority to the same date. This resolution includes retroactive reauthorization to January 30th, the day the program lapsed due the delayed passage in Congress over the weekend.
There may be some confusion about NFIP extension vs. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding through February 13th. Although the NFIP is currently managed by FEMA that is part of DHS, the approved short-term DHS funding is separate and distinct from the NFIP extension.
In H.R. 7148, the bill that was passed and signed last night, the NFIP extension provisions can be found in Division I, section 5004. "Extension of National Flood Insurance Program": items (a) Financing and (b) Program Expiration replace the prior date with September 30, 2026 and item (c) addresses the retroactivity of the extension back to January 30, 2026.
