Common conditions that may qualify for an ESA letter include:

• Anxiety disorders
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Bipolar disorder
• Autism spectrum disorder
• Agoraphobia
• Epilepsy
• Panic attacks
• Partial blindness or deafness

If diagnosed, your therapist can issue an ESA letter confirming your need for emotional support from an animal.

These items are considered optional accessories and carry no legal standing under federal or state ESA laws. You may use them for personal convenience, but they do not grant additional rights or protections.

1. If your landlord rejects your valid ESA letter, follow these steps:
2. Verify that your letter includes the licensed professional’s name, license number, and contact details.
3. Politely inform your landlord about ESA protections under the Fair Housing Act (FHA).
4. If they continue to deny your request, you can file a housing discrimination complaint with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

This approach complies with federal privacy laws, allowing you to access housing or accommodations without revealing personal health details.

Under the Fair Housing Act, only a state-licensed therapist or physician can evaluate your condition and determine if you qualify for an Emotional Support Animal.

Due to changes in the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA), airlines are no longer required to accommodate ESAs and may treat them as regular pets. Major carriers like Alaska, JetBlue, Southwest, United, and American Airlines have discontinued ESA acceptance.

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), only trained service animals are guaranteed access to workplaces. Since ESAs are not trained to perform specific tasks, it’s up to your employer’s discretion whether to allow one as a reasonable accommodation.

Start by showing your valid ESA letter from a licensed mental health professional (LMHP). This is your primary legal proof under the Fair Housing Act (FHA).

If someone questions your rights:

• Politely educate them about ESA protections under federal law.
• Make sure your ESA letter is current, signed, and includes all required details.
• If the challenge continues, you can file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Yes, it is important to renew your emotional support animal letter annually. You can contact the same licensed professional or go to another professional to renew it. However, if you are struggling to find an LMHP in the state or have lost connection with your existing provider you can apply to Fast ESA Letter. We work with a team of licensed mental health professionals who provide recommendations after a thorough evaluation.

A valid Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letter from a licensed mental health professional grants you several legal rights and protections under the Fair Housing Act (FHA):

• Right to live in “no-pet” housing without denial from landlords
• Exemption from pet fees, pet rent, and deposits
• Protection from breed, size, or weight restrictions, landlords cannot deny your ESA based on these factors
• Permission to live with your ESA in college dorms or university housing
• Emotional and psychological support for conditions such as anxiety, PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder, and more

Yes, it’s possible, and often recommended to get an ESA letter before adopting your Emotional Support Animal.

The letter is issued to you, not the animal, and confirms your need for an ESA to manage a mental or emotional disability. Having it in advance helps you secure housing approval and ensures legal protection under the Fair Housing Act.
