I believe you have to register with FEMA first, then you will actually get assistance in the form of a loan from SBA at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela/Account/Register1 My friend and colleague @tami dubose is going through the process now and she's the one I got the link above from.

Refinancing is a fine balance of having rates low enough and having values in your area to be high enough so that you can actually close because if rates are low but values are low and you cant appraise then the low rates would be of no use.
