NEW YORK -- FEMA is promising to review cases of families affected by flooding from Hurricane Ida after CBS2's report.

We first told you Wednesday about several New Jersey families still waiting to get rental assistance from the federal government.

The Borough of Manville was under water after Hurricane Ida in September of 2021. Displaced families say they received money for two months rent, but after that, they say FEMA denied them, saying they did not submit proper documentation.

The agency told us it will audit the cases.
