Section 1312 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 ( 42 U.S.C. 4019 ), as amended by section 406(a), is amended by adding at the end the following: If a policyholder submits a proof of loss, or an equivalent submission, for a claim with respect to a policy for flood insurance coverage made available under this title by the deadline required under the standard flood insurance policy, the Administrator may not deny payment for any supplemental proof of loss submitted for flood damage sustained from the same flood event on the basis that the policyholder failed to include the flood damages on the initial proof of loss.
If a policyholder of a policy for flood insurance coverage made available under this title signs an initial or supplemental proof of loss described in paragraph (1), that act of signing may not preclude the policyholder from making supplemental claims to, or otherwise amending, the initial proof of loss. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, or any term or condition of a standard flood insurance policy, the Administrator may not condition payment of an undisputed claim based on the submission of a signed and sworn to proof of loss. .
