What happens if a federally assisted housing provider fails to act on a request for an accommodation?
If a housing provider delays responding to a request for an accommodation, after a reasonable amount of time, that delay may be construed as a failure to provide a reasonable accommodation. A tenant or applicant may choose to seek legal assistance or file a complaint with HUD. For further information, please see the section of this Web site that describes the complaint process.
