Yup. You tell ’em Chuck. That whole ‘opening up a letter and reading it’ thing can be a hell of a burden for people on it’s on, let alone actually following through with answering a couple of questions and mailing it back. Oh the HUMANITY!!!

Maybe a bunch of these folks are claiming their NY residence as secondary on their taxes to avoid paying the higher rates compared to their other state. Schumer’s the Jessie Jackson of NY politics.
I mailed in a copy of my driver’s license as requested by FEMA to prove my covered property was my primary residence. I received a letter a month later asking me to resubmit because FEMA said the copy was illegible! I could read it just fine. So even if you’ve submitted your ‘proof’ check with your agent to make sure you aren’t being charged the $250 surcharge!
Charge $250.00 for a non-primary residential building? Yup, because they can. It has nothing to do with underwriting a specific risk. It is about finding money where they can. Why would this sort of thing not occur once Senator Schumer removes the WYOs from the equation as he suggested last month. NFIP owns this fee not the WYOs.

As usual, the Fed come a’ridin’ in on their high horse to solve the problem they created.
Chuckie Schmuckie should leave it alone.
More free money!!!!!Yeah!!!
The requirement for returning the documentation is part of the LAW not something NFIP created….Who created the LAW?
Just goes to show you how many in congress do not read what they are signing into LAW!!!
If you think this is bad….come November 1, 2015 the bussiness are required to complete the same documentation or receive an additional fee….
These requirements have been reported in the Insurance Journals … where is the Agent’s responsibility in providing “guidance” in these matters?

My ‘proof’ of primary residency which was a copy of my driver’s license was returned because FEMA said it was illegible.
