RestoreLA Duplication of Benefits from the Flood of 2016 - is means based

Not quite true. HUD’s official guidance isn’t out yet. This was merely a notification to LARestore that they can start paying out to those people with SBA loans below the 120% AMi threshold. If you’re above that, you can still be helped via exception and/or once everyone below that number gets their funds.

Also, if you declined the SBA loan, those potential funds that you never received no longer count as a DOB regardless of your income. This was the main fix that needed to take place.
