Check: FEMA is taking public comment through 2026-12-15 on the Tribal Homeland Security Program (THSGP) investment justification that Indian Tribes use to apply for funding.

Read in the Federal Register

What it does

FEMA is renewing the existing approval of the THSGP investment justification (FEMA Form FF-207-FY-22-118), the application form that directly eligible tribes use to request homeland security funds. The notice is an extension without change, so the form itself is not being revised. Tribal governments can comment on whether the collection is necessary, the accuracy of its burden estimate, and how clear and usable the form is.

Why it matters for tribal funding

Directly tribal. The document is about tribes, tribal programs or Native organizations specifically.

Who it covers: Tribal governments.

What to do next

  1. Submit any comments by 2026-12-15 at regulations.gov under ID FEMA-2026-0661.
  2. Direct questions about the proposed collection to Cornelius Jackson, Preparedness Officer, at (202) 786-9508 or the email listed in the notice.
