Individuals who were present south of Houston Street in Lower Manhattan between September 11, 2001 and July 31, 2002 may be eligible for free healthcare and compensation. Families of deceased individuals may be entitled to compensation as well. The federal government recently provided fully funded compensation and extended the deadline through 2090, but other critical deadlines may apply. However, all who were present in Lower Manhattan between 9/11/01 and 7/31/02 should act fast to determine whether they may be eligible for compensation. Awards will continue to be paid on a first-come first-serve basis.
在2001年9月11日至2002年7月31日期間，在曼哈頓下城休斯頓街以南出現的民眾有可能符合資格申請免費醫療和經濟賠償。已故民眾的家屬也有可能獲得賠償。聯邦政府為9/11賠償基金會(VCF)提供全額資助，並將截止日期延長到2090年。儘管如此，VCF在將來也可能設有其他相關的期限。所有在2001年9月11日至2002年7月31日期間出現在曼哈頓下城的社區民眾都應該迅速採取行動，以確認自己是否有資格獲得賠償。賠償金將繼續以先到先得的方式發放。
