I thought you could seek documentation from a professional saying that they have a diagnosed disability that requires a pet, as long as you don't request specifics about their disability?

Anyway, after that, two days later I have a letter from a local unlicensed social worker that my tenant had been seeing stating that her need for an Emotional Support Animal was due to diagnosed disabilities due to the loss of her child.

Really want something to tell them to get a letter where they are diagnosed "in person" by a healthcare professional.

Last year I was diagnosed with testicular cancer which became an inflection point for me.

Plus if it isn't diagnosed how can they say you discriminated?

Of course, we went through as quickly as we could to get in touch with our Home Warranty company and get an HVAC company dispatched to diagnose the issue.HVAC returns my call today telling me that it was a "severely clogged air filter" causing the lines to freeze over.

In addition to what that article has (no authoritative guidance cited and they missed a ton)...here is what the Act really says:  - who is diagnosed with COVID-19 by a test approved by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; or - whose spouse or dependent (generally a qualifying child or relative who receives more than half of his or her support from you) is diagnosed with COVID-19 by such a test; or - who experiences adverse financial consequences as a result of being quarantined, furloughed, laid off, or forced to reduce work hours due to COVID-19; or - who is unable to work because of a lack of child care due to COVID-19 and experiences adverse financial consequences as a result; or - who owns or operates a business that has closed or had operating hours reduced due to COVID-19, and who has experienced adverse financial consequences as a result; or who has experienced adverse financial consequences due to other COVID-19-related factors to be specified in future IRS guidance.

Fast forward to last summer (2014) I got sick again, same symptoms as in 2009 and I'm pretty sure I had Mono (or Epstein-Barr Virus) again, even though I was never officially diagnosed with anything.  

A few years ago I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and lost some eye sight, especially color.  

My girlfriend however, has been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and her doctor sugested that it would be extremly beneficial if we could get a pet (like a cat or small dog) because of all the benefits it provides to people who suffer from depression and anxiety.
