Re-entry info
Determining when it's safe to return home after an evacuation order depends on several factors, including hazard conditions in your area and the guidance of local authorities.
Emergency evacuation payments
Emergency evacuation payments (EEPs) are a one-time payment for Albertans affected by mandatory evacuation orders that exceed a minimum of 7 days. EEPs are meant to ease the cost of evacuating, temporary accommodation and essential day-to-day costs of being away from your primary home due to an evacuation order during a disaster.
Evacuation payments
Eligible families will receive:
- $1,250 for each adult
- $500 for each dependent under the age of 18
